Vid of her on the dyno with the 1st tune. Was retuned by a better tuner a few months later & by playing with ignition timing, gained an extra 6 horses and 2 foot pounds of torque. Also, it has not been tuned with lightened flywheel and in this video it had a carved accord trans. and stock flywheel and auto zone intake crap lol. More videos of the car on that channel.

Your car is perfect, exactly what I want to go for. Nothing crazy, just simple while still getting more power, using the A20. I'm at least going to get as far as the KSports, Se-i disc, 5 speed swap and new rims.

So your intake is for the B16, but it fits the A20?
Also, what camber kits do you have? I had assumed the KSports included camber adjustment because of their description of it, "if the top mount is the pillow ball style".

Anyways yeah, I like the direction you took with your car, that's pretty much exactly the way I'd go.

The b16 manifold will fit with some trimming and gotta drill out the a20 stud pattern. There's many threads on here how to do it. I have some rockauto camber cam studs in the front and ingalls in the rear

Alright man, I gotta know, how have you figured all of this stuff out about the 3rd gen? I respect your build highly, it's essentially the same plan I have for my '86, but I'm 19 too man, and I feel so behind haha. I have no idea how to chip my P75 (nor what dizzy to use for the obd1 conversion), and for the longest time until you mentioned in an earlier post I thought the only front camber adjustment for a 3g were modified Prelude arms. You know so much already, was all just from trial and error early on?

Sweet build man, I'll get there eventually

Yep that's how I built the car LOL! Do something that goes wrong or doesn't work, try with something different or look up what I'm doing and get it done right. A lot of it is research most definitely and the other part is just tearing it apart and taking time to put it back together to see how everything works. I had my Ecu chipped and tuned by a speed shop and for dizzy I read the posts on here about the conversion. Thank you man I appreciate the respect. Hard to get from "car guys" now a days

Thank you for the advice. I'm slowly getting out of "look up the directions how to do this," to "figure this shit out on my own and understand how it works," just takes a lot longer when it's my daily driver haha.

My build plan is similar; full rebuild, stock b16 intake (and an SRI), obd1 w/P75 ecu & whatever distributor, any cam with 272 duration, and something like the DC header if I come by one. Then it's off to suspension

For those who are following along, I am going to be parting with this engine and trans and going for a GSR swap

There are actually a lot of carb guys who have posted on this website. There seems to be a lot more aftermarket options in that area. But I did not read them thoroughly because I have injectors. The power numbers don't seem to compare with injector models. So I decided to stick with digital. I'm sure a good dual carb with cold air will make you happy. Broadie, great work. Sad to see your ditching the A series, but I'm sure you will be ecstatic with your power gain.
