Re: ?'s about my 94 del sol vtec.

It is a 94 VTEC! LOOK AT THE GODDAMN VALVE COVER! IT IS A FOUR CYLINDER! ONLY ONE HEADER! I HAVE TO BE MEAN BECAUSE IT IS THE ONLY WAY YOU LEARN!

get intake, header, high flow cat and catback exhaust( a good sounding one please. May I recommend RS*R) Some good wheels like Rota, short shifter, nice shocks and springs, sway bar. then you will have a fun ride.

Re: ?'s about my 94 del sol vtec.

Del Sol's dont need short shifters.. IMO at least. But seriously. in REALLY big print on your valve cover it says DOHC VTEC!

Oh yeah I forgot. But if I had a Del Sol I would probably do all of those other things, just to make it a fun car.

The Del Sol Vtec came with a B16A motor, DOHC 1595cc vtec motor. The other trim lines of the Del Sol (not the Del Sol Vtec) had SOHC D series motors

Re: ?'s about my 94 del sol vtec.

I Was Looking At Some Dc Sports Headers On Horsepowerfreaks.com. I Notice There Is Two Types Of Headers To Get. A One Piece And A Two Piece And What Is The Difference Between 4-2-1 And 4-1?

Re: ?'s about my 94 del sol vtec.

4 pipes into one pipe or 4 pipes into two pipes into one pipe. go with a ceramic coated 4-2-1 for a DC header. I use it on my B16, kickass header.the 4-2-1 is more for horsepower where as the 4-1 is mroe for low end torque. Since it is a honda, you want high end horsepower because any amount of torque won't really do you any good. plus it is always fun to be behind in a race then let your top end horsepower have you blow past someone.

Re: ?'s about my 94 del sol vtec.

ok so you guys are saying that 421 is for more low end torque and the 4-1 is for more horsepower?
