"How to build Honda horsepower"

[CivicSpoon]

Bought the book today, love it. Only thing that I didn't like was that it didn't have anything on on the ITR or CTR motors (other than the cams, intake and exhaust manifolds on other motors).

[integra111]

does ths book include info on the prelude and its motors

[CivicSpoon]

Nope, that's another thing i wish it had in it.

Good reading...now if only you could get Extrude Hone to come down on their price.

IMO, Those gains aint worth that price.

Yeah the book only covers usdm engines including d16's, b16a's, and b18c1's... no type r's or h22's in it. Sorry I didn't mention that.

[civicHBsi91]

What about Ls's? Im assuming yes but h22's and type r's can be usdm too so?? lol anything on b18a/b's?

i bought "high-peformance honda builders handbook" and that has some very good indepth technicle shit. If you know a shitload bout hondas and youre trying to build a mean ass street car, this is the book for you! Its not dyno-oriented like HTBHH (i think thats the one im thinking about) but its good non the less!

[Import_fantasy]

yea i got the book that the guy above mentioned but i was kinda dissappointed by it. Told me a bunch of shit i already knew, didnt really go into detail on alot of stuff. Anyway does this other book tell alot about b20 swaps and going CRVTEC?

[Ricochet]

It does have a few crvtec and ls/vtec dynocharts. There is one section where they briefly explain how to build one too.

just to throw a comment in here, I bought the book from totalcampus.com on the first night this was posted a long ass time ago. I still haven't recieved it, I emailed them and everything and they said that they didn't even ship it till the 24th so yeah they are slow as hell and i'm getting pissed. I just want my damn book! haha.





PS: i'm assuming they don't really have anything on the B17 but they do have the B16 right? wouldn't be much of a honda book if they didn't.

[Civic_D16Y5]

for some crazy reason, they dont have anything about my Y5 motor.
with the book i thought it was gonna be a lot differant, like the first section would be d16s and what an intake, manifold, exhaust, and turbos would do for it, then onto the b16's etc. the book was kinda worthless for n/a d16s i think

I bought a book called "Honda & Acura Performance Handbook" yesterday and I give it a big thumbs up. Has a lot of info on suspensions setups and balancing, carberators, ignitions, and fuel management. Good well rounded info book.

[GWInquisitor14]

Yeah i bought that book about 5 months ago and have been preeching from it up until i stopped talking here and went to honda-tech.com cuz thats more of the tech shit.
