A little question your ignition is set at 20 degrees advance right ?Your stock ignition is set at 12° degrees advance how did you set i up till 20 ?With a special timing gun that can read degrees ?My ignition is set at 16° because of the obd1 swap ,but how does it work with the facelift D14's ...?

What I always do is in my mind try to extrapolate the 10/12/14 deg marks... its tricky and comes with some uncertainty.

On the other hand... could also be the ignition maps, and those are dead easy to change. Mine are for instance changed by 10 deg all over to match up with the cam timing which is off by approximatly the same amount. So I don't end up getting dizzies which can't get into the right range.

That would be my next question how much your setup was advanced .
I was thinking of taken out the Dremel and make some extra grooves in the underdrive pulley.I can imagine it in my mind but like you allready said it's hard to aim right.I believe Martin's "crappy" timing gun could be set at degrees so maybe you could see the change digital... I have to look into mine maybe i can set that up too...

i have been running in excess of 0.6bar for the past 4 years on a d14z2 and have run upto 0.8bar. Still no problem with the compression etc. So they can take it quite well.

Stock honda pistons tend to crack at the ring lands in excess of 0.8bar or 200ish whp. I'm not sure how much the tiny rods of the d14 can take but i've heard of 220whp d14s with stock internals.

Wow, not bad.

is sebastix still alive? i would love to take a look to his maps!!

you can get him on his facebook page, he is online very often

218hp / 213nm at 10 psi boost!

Awesome !Congratz

super...
