Spicy Cb3

[Joaco]

Hi colleagues I have a Cb3 that have an F20A engine, and i want to leave more Spicy, Faster.
I have in mind some mod's, like:

-Camshaft Stage 1
-Pulleys
-Exhaust + Header
-Short-Ram
-Chip
-Prelude H22 Throttle Body

Any mod, that help's me?


O.t: I think that the car have 150Hp because i try on a track of drag's with a friend that haves an chevrolet astra GSI 2.5 with 150Hp and i leave behind by 2 cars in 402m

Astra of my Friend

Yeah it's a Chevrolet Astra

Stage 2 cam, stage 1 is only gonna give you a slight bump up

Stage 2? I use it as daily car, that's not very crossed?

The Astra is originally an Opel. We got it as a Saturn. And yes, it's a nice looking car.


As for your planned mods:

-Camshaft Stage 1 - Good. Any more, and you need to replace your valve springs.

-Pulleys - Minor gains. Get Unorthodox Racing pulleys ONLY. Others may not be well balanced.

-Exhaust + Header - You get what you pay for. I would get an Apexi World Sport 2 and a Bisimoto header (neither of which are cheap...)

-Short-Ram - The pipe doesn't matter... get a cheap one. But put a K&N or AEM filter on it!

-Chip - no "chip" is going to give you power... it will only damage your engine. You'll need to get an ECU that can be tuned, and have it custom tuned for your specific engnie. Do this after everything else.

-Prelude H22 Throttle Body - You'll need an intake manifold that will fit it. Get the H23 manifold. The throttle body is the same as the H22, but the manifold will bolt right up to your head.



You might want to look into an H22 transmission as well. The shorter gearing will make the car more fun to drive, and a bit quicker accelerating from a stop. Upgrading your suspension (shocks, springs, bushings, etc...) will also make the car much more fun.

The transmission will work, but not the ECU. Make sure you use an H22 ECU with the H22, or internal engine damage could happen.

H22 ECU is a P13.
You can also get a chipped ECU, but be sure to tune it ASAP.
