DHonovich's build thread for Honda Challenge and Time Trials

hmm looks interesting. How difficult are they to tune with? I also have an 2002 so I feel your pain on the lack of low/midrange torque. My car really bogs down when going uphill. For instance at VIR's climbing esses the car just stops accelerating lol.

Vtec engagement is lowered by your load on the engine so. When your cruising vtec is Normal under racing or spirited driving 75%-80% throttle the vtec drops to 3600/3800

I've been running my Greddy EMU piggyback for a few years now and love it. VTEC engages at 4000 RPM @ 100% throttle.
I had the car dynoed a few years back on a dynojet and it put down nearly 230 whp (don't remember the torque). Mods at the time were K&N intake, T1R 63mm TP + exhaust, and custom tune.
When I had the custom tune performed, I had peak gain of 20 whp + 20 wtq at 5500 RPM but minimal gains on the high end. The 20/20 gain was the difference between bolt-ons mentioned above without the tune and then same bolt-ons with the custom tune, obviously on the same day.
