Re: 11,000 rpm's on dyno

Seems like it wouldn't be making power up there, or past 10,000 rpms. Can't you set shift lights for where you like them?

Yes, but usually the engineer's program the optimum shift point in so.

Re: 11,000 rpm's on dyno

Pretty cool. It would make a great drag car, but good luck trying to drive in traffic with the complete lack of low end power. Also yes it's still a hopped up Civic.

Re: 11,000 rpm's on dyno

he may shift it after the peak preformance point just to keep it up in the higher RPM's

I used to race karts on the longest kart track in england. The 125cc engine was pulling 13,500 rpm at the end of the straight and it still had more left in it!! Having said that karts are very different to cars but i still think it is quiet impressive.

Re: 11,000 rpm's on dyno

i believe a turbo was involver and the internals almost have to be all forged.
that was a strong engine and odviously nothing was stock on that thing

Re: 11,000 rpm's on dyno

eh, the 13B can be made to rev that high and make power that high with some modifications....
however for a piston engine that is pretty nice, forged pistons, H-beam rods and forged and balenced crank with some fule with a flame speed to keep up and your in business...
