sticking with the GA16DE

[sileighty85]

i was wondering if its a good idea to just stick with the GA16DE and add basic bolt-on, and is it possible to bolt-on some se-r parts??how much hp will be gain from basic bolt-on for the GA16DE.

[sileighty85]

where can i find parts for it other then ebay(plan b) lol

Try the sponsors, I know some carry some GA parts. SE-R parts won't fit directly.

Honestly, a GA with bolt ons is still going to be pretty slow. If this is a daily, then at least it'll hint at having some pep, but if you have any bigger plans, the GA either has to go or you'll need to start reaching deep into your pockets.

Actually coming from the honda world(peep the name lol) "stock" is to broad a term in the honda world. Someone will say stock when it has a stock dualcam vtec motor lol. so pop hood if your plannin racing hondas that bein said i dont see why you wouldnt beat a dx civic easy (any year) they come with either 1.5 or 1.6 single cams as long as it realtivly stock you should take it. good rule of thumb is not try to race any honda with a sunroof almost every honda that has a sunroof has a vtec motor (unless its a 88-91) those would be givin you a run for your money those motors have mad potential i built a 250+whp all motor one

But bang away at one lol taht should help you

BTW most hondas are non vtec singlecams so bang away at them kitted Peiceo'**** hondas

Jimwolftechnology.com has ga16de parts also there are quite a few turbo ga's that are putting down over 260whp.

u ever time ur car in a 1/4 mile?

[gazu]

i ran 17.5 sec in a 1/4 with a stock ga16de auto. there a guy here changing chip in d ecu. [15 more horse power].so i want 2 try it. then prob i would try 2 get some headers.

A GA16 is not going to gain 15hp from a change in the programming. 5, maybe, but all it can do is lean out the fuel mixtures a little bit, and, being an economy motor, they're already pretty lean.

The GA16DE is basically the little brother of the KA24DE. They are almost identical with exceptions to size. In terms of pulling power from the GA16DE, it is quite easy to due, if you know what you are doing. If you have a 1991-1994 GA16DE, you can bolt up an SR20DE throttle-body no problem. This, unfortunately, is not true on the 1995-1998 engines. Also, Jim Wolf Technology sells performance camshafts, clutches, and all kinds of good stuff. To increase the internals, get the connecting rods from the GA16i single-cam engine; much stronger but same throw and everything. Creating a turbo kit for the GA16DE is fairly easy as well; I made one using a Borg-Warner K03 turbocharger off an Audi A4 1.8T for under $500. It is currently running 8 lbs of boost at 1800 rpms using stock injectors; courtesy of an SAFC of course.

Also, the GA16DE may be an economy engine, but it has real power available. From the factory, it comes with 195cc injectors, which have more spray than a Honda B18 stock.

but can d t.p.s. censor from the sr20 work with the ga16 computer

[gazu]

well i put on a sr18de trottle body on my ga16de. but the tps on d 16 cannot work on 18. so i use d 18 with d cencer. is this how it work?
