johnny O would have the fastest but it's a drag car, he was in the 10's with the a20 block, now he's running the h22 ,he pretty much has it locked up.

and as for street cars, I think Dennis takes that trophy with a fully street legal, full interior hatch with a boosted A20. Wasn't he somewhere near 300hp at the wheels?

[Nik247]

damn on the a20??? wow i didnt know it could be that powerful boosted i expected 230ish not 300 what kind of setup does he have?

[2drSE-i]

Lets not forget wickedaccord with his bseries 400whp monster.

[RobT5580]

I was around the 300WHP mark on a JDM B20A but no dyno to back it up as of yet.

There are a few accords floating around with decent power! I can't remember if Justin Ballou ever dynoed his but i would guess he was in the 300whp range with his setup.

who has the best set up on the a20? im tired of ppl tellin me to sell the car or do an engine swap cuz the a20 sucks i know it does but i want to make mine bad ass

do some searching on the turbo setups. for those who tell you these suck,they are built a lot stronger then a lot of newer honda stuff. also no replacment for displacement, these were the biggest motors until the v6 came out. they used to be a popular swap into 1st and second gen civics. would make a hell of a fast car. I remember there was a company in Atlanta that used to make an entire swap kit to drop a FI a20 into an 81-83 civic, mounts,wiring harnesses, exaust components,entire deal. those were the good old days.

may be old and slow but it's better then it being the same as 10000000 identical civics with the same parts,at least it has style.

[russ_512]

^^ o yea

[accordion89]

lol, i toped mine out at 120 with a 100hp, not smart but whatev

[Bass Man]

Wow... I couldn't go more than 105 even with a weber... It got to 80 really fast, but it didn't have much about that.

[accordion89]

? maybe i just push it, stock 120, with luggage and a passenger,
it was in montana

[MessyHonda]

yeah i think dennis does take the cake but he has been building his hatch for a while now

[Nik247]

lol ya i agree with ur statement

[Nik247]

and one thing the 3g has is freakin flip up headlights!!!!!!!!!!! if u dont like em u shouldnt be near the 3g

Not around here it doesn't.

[markmdz89hatch]

Not around here it doesn't.

at least not for the sedans, but still holds true for the A-decks.

[Tomisimo]

yes, 3Gee FTW. A20 is a strong powerplant, first of all its a steel block so it can handle some torque, and with decent high CR pistons and rods, and a great turbo hybrid T3/T4 compressor, you up in 300Hp range. Stand alone or OBD1 is best, but it all finish touches and you have a sleeper.

that is exactly why i gave my 91 civic to my parrents... fucking a everybody has done the same thing on it a million times so it then becomes boring..anything you do to it someone else will have already done it before multiple times.

and i wish i could find an a20a swap kit for my 81 my a20a block is getting sad sitting in the shed

High CR? Thought you wanted a LOW Compression ratio.

[Tomisimo]

Why you want low compression pistons? with original CR 9.5:1 on A20a4 engine is 122Hp. on A20a3 is 8.5:1 CR and its 112Hp. with 11.5/12:1 CR you'll get maybe 135Hp from stock engine. and not least High CR pistons means Custom forged pistons..

[markmdz89hatch]

that's the age-old question when you're talking about boosting. Many (ok, most) boosted setups use lower c/r because the tolerances are greater and there's less potential for the big bang when you spin the thing to 7.5K or more. The lower c/r pistons are offset by the power generated from the turbo. ...but yeah, higher c/r base with boost will net more raw power, and more power under boost, but you have to be more careful with your a/f ratio and how high you spin it, otherwise... ...well you know.

my buddy blew his h22 since he had 11.1 je's and wow she went but crappy tune she blew in a couple of weeks
