STOCK K20A3 ITB DYNO TUNE RESULTS

[@TexasHondaChannel]

Oh solid mounts are going on btw i got them and didn’t mention it! Yes the engine moves a lot. 😂

[@coldcubed5229]

How do you swap from a single cam vtec to dual cam vtec head?

[@TexasHondaChannel]

@@coldcubed5229 As mentioned in the video I will have a video coming out on all of that so you’re gonna have to stay tuned if you want to find out God bless you

[@Adam-nv9zo]

Can't wait to see where this goes. God bless you brother. 🙏

[@TexasHondaChannel]

Yes same here! Thanks 🙏🏻 God bless you

[@benjipc3672]

Great video thank you so much for your time and hard work. I love the ending!!!

[@TexasHondaChannel]

Thank you and it’s my favorite part of the video.

[@danielhaynes1642]

I made 213 with a k20a3 with a vtec killer set up with a rbc manifold, skunk2 alpha header, rdx injectors. Super basic set up running k20a2 cams Go with a 3inch exhaust, or atleast a 2.75

[@TexasHondaChannel]

Right 2 3/4 or 3 is what ima do and locked Vtec would have easily made more power but that small cam on intake side just kills it. No worries already got the next video in the works. Engine is out, new clutch and k20a2 head going on. It’s about to wake up

[@Pnwbassinescape]

I made 218/153 8600rpm k20z3

[@johnnymoody2740]

Good video. Can't wait to see the numbers. Loving the outro...Jesus loves you 🙏🙏 Precious ❤❤

Love what you're doing with the car! Keep it up

[@willlewis9791]

Magnaflow 12641 resonator, obx 3in twin loop muffler, and i think kteller sells a pre bent 3in exhaust pipe kit. Gives a lower pitch exhaust note on a 3in.

[@TexasHondaChannel]

I like this $800 muffler it does good and it’s a 3 inch inlet already I just need a Jones resonator and it will be perfect with 3 inch.

[@xternalized_mind]

You should see if you can trade off the TSX cams you have planned and jump right to a aftermarket set; with the head being ported and polished and all…👍

[@TexasHondaChannel]

Nah I like the k24 2008 TSX cams. They will be plenty good for what I’m going for.

[@nathanbrown6091]

I’ve got an a3 and I’m considering trying the vtec killer before I swap to a k24a2/20a2 turbo

[@TexasHondaChannel]

I made 315whp with bone stock internal k20a3 no Vtec killer but it was boosted. It was on my green k swap truck on this channel if you wanna see it. Browse my videos.

[@camlobesvtec]

Congrats brother nice! I say 208 hp with the new setup.

[@TexasHondaChannel]

With 3 inch exhaust and everything I think more than 208 but I’ll be honest it feels good as it is. We can do better though 😎👍🏻

[@camlobesvtec]

Fantastic brother. Hoping for the best for you and your family. Your content, I'm always waiting to see it.

[@TexasHondaChannel]

@@camlobesvtec thank you 🙏🏻 can’t wait to see what happens and appreciate you checking in! God bless you!

[@empireracing2738]

Basically it helped open up some power (+4 estimated), but improved the acceleration for sure!

[@Lee_songbird_94]

Very, very nice!!!!!

[@dublacrv]

Is that paint pen on the tires?? How does it do with tire shiners(gel)?

[@TexasHondaChannel]

I have it covered a little bit on my video on Moore Motorsports garage but it’s just white paint pen from Walmart. My brother did it for me. Holds up and easy to do. Video of the mention kzbin.info/www/bejne/r2G0n4GMjZeHeM0

[@aaronjoseph9588]

Once the head swap is done, there will be at least 30hp more

[@louisejaunalex-st.cortez7380]

The dyno comparison isn't a fair apples to apples comparison if it's from the stock dyno pull from a couple videos ago. That mid range gain is more likely from the tuning of the afr and cam angle than the ITB's. The k20a3 don't move enough air where the intake manifold/stock 62mm tb would be a restriction.

[@TexasHondaChannel]

In order to do a proper comparison I would’ve first had to tune the K20a3 with the RBC intake manifold squeezing the most power out that we could. Then swap the ITB set up and then do another dyno tune session Showing how much we gained or lost but in order to do that I would have to be super rich because each Dyno session cost money. I’m doing the most I can with what little I have. It probably makes more power with the RBC intake manifold but I’m not after power I’m after drivability throttle response and just having fun if you guys wanna fund every single little thing by all means my PayPal information is in the description. I’m doing this out of my own pocket and it’s not cheap to do this kinda content for a living. So with that being said I hope you enjoy what comes next God bless you

[@bobbydelamar606]

I just got my K24A2 CRX on the road. It feels nice but it's lacking something. It needs a tune up and a tune. Anything specific you did with Hondata when you first installed it?

[@danne18]

rbc intake manifold and a tune u should be solid

[@TexasHondaChannel]

@@danne18 yea exactly!!

[@TexasHondaChannel]

I have a video that came out prior to this setting up Hondata but always do a good tune up. Run the correct spark plugs not ac Delco or some cheap auto lite plugs. Prefer NGK or Denso myself because they work great . Make sure it’s running smooth and good before focusing on performance upgrades. Sometimes a good performance upgrade is just a good tuneup. But I definitely agree RBC intake manifold a free-flowing exhaust an intake and it really wakes these up

[@bobbydelamar606]

@TexasHondaChannel I'm sure I'll need an exhaust also, lol. Right now it's dumped at the header. I do have the RBC intake, Type S oil pump, RDX injectors and Drag Cartel 45 deg vtc. I'll do a tune-up this week and use NGK, I love those.

[@bobbydelamar606]

@TexasHondaChannel I don't know, It feels slower than I thought. I did beat my son's RSX type s but not by much. Oh, and I need an IAT sensor.

[@hdeyncrky]

The graph already shows what I’m about to say but there is a huge gain in your average power and torque. Peak power isn’t as important as a broad power-band. There is no doubt in my mind that if you were to compare data from the drag strip on similar outings that you would be substantially faster. You should go back to the graph and see how much it gained through the curve, I’d bet it’s much more than you think.

[@TexasHondaChannel]

Yea the information is saved but it definitely made more power. We were having some intermittent air fuel issues due to o2 sensor going out so I’m willing to bet once I replace it and re tune it would be more power but as it is the power difference feels a lot larger than the graph “peak power” shows.

[@augiegonzales7025]

Are you going to or do you already have a type S oil pump 👍🏽

[@TexasHondaChannel]

The type s and k20a3 are the same oil pump so yes I do.

[@Shmurda_Inc_YT]

What were the numbers then with the A2 head and additional upgrades to it???

[@Kaiser187]

Needs a 3 inch exhaust. Sounded good though.

[@TexasHondaChannel]

Yes I agree.

[@skunk3works895]

Yo dope video next month i take mine I only have a couple of more things to do and its ready for dyno im planning on making 265hp so we see 🚘💪😎🏁👌👀🔰

[@TexasHondaChannel]

I know you can do it! It’s all in the correct setup. I know my k20a3 could make 315whp with turbo I proved that on my bone stock a3 with boost but all motor requires a bit more here and there mods lol. Definitely gonna be fun when done. Let me know how it goes!

That’s wild my a3 just pushed 187 on 91 fbo

[@victorwilks88]

cant wait for the k24 goodies

[@89hybrid88]

8 ftlbs of torque is what I like to see.

[@Anthony-fc1zb]

Go to 3" and never look back. Anything k series will be restricted with Anything smaller than 3" exhaust. Nice seeing the itb made a noticeable difference alone though.

[@TexasHondaChannel]

Yea I don’t like 3 inch because they are usually stupid loud but with this muffler and good resonator it will be fine. This muffler is a 3inch inlet btw lol

[@Anthony-fc1zb]

@Texas Honda Channel depends on the type of box you got at the end plus resonators. The vibrant mufflers and resonators seem to be a pretty good fix for having a 3" exhaust piping and keeping the noise down.

[@TexasHondaChannel]

@@Anthony-fc1zb Invidia Q50 muffler it sounds awesome

[@Anthony-fc1zb]

@Texas Honda Channel that's a good one too! Almost forgot about invidia.

[@eghatchsosa]

Damn i need these 😢. And there still out of stock

[@TexasHondaChannel]

I know they had some and went back out of stock.

[@ejsvirtualgarage]

0:26 I'm guessing 162 HP / 143 TQ I'll edit this later EDIT: My numbers were off...but that is a healthy increase, especially if you are still using 87 octane!

[@TexasHondaChannel]

93 octane but the big problem is exhaust size is small and couldn’t tune using Alpha N which is tps based Hondata tuning. We will have that fixed by next Dyno session.

[@ericg1149]

❤

[@GlassWerx]

My guess between 185 and 190. Dang i was wayyyyyy off. Still not bad itll get bwtter with the head swap

[@TexasHondaChannel]

Yea I was thinking 185whp as well but I didn’t take into consideration exhaust size and cam size lol

[@GlassWerx]

@@TexasHondaChannel yeah once ya get the new head on with the real VTec even if just having it locked it'll open it up more and throw some better then stock injectors on it and up the fuel some it'll do even better even if they are just de-caped injectors. Iv wanted itb for years but only real tuning I'd found for them was stuff like mega squirt or trial and error with chrome or something similar but now can't find the hardware to do tuning with chrome. Iv got that chipped p28 but idk what's on the chip and pherable said there's no way to know without pulling the chip and reading it. But the ECU is already setup and socketed and looks ready for a hondata so once I decide what engine route I'm gonna go with that'll be the next big step

[@diegonavaja804]

Can you put the Walmart itb link

[@kajuankirwan9987]

‼️‼️‼️🔥

[@greeenteeee]

Only newbs care about peak. The low to mid gains look solid how does it feel in daily driving feel? Less throttle inputs needed/lower duty cycles?

[@shawnmarques7117]

I got an ep3 with a k24a2 in it.

[@anthonymanz9355]

7:40 Mexico road-trip

[@TexasHondaChannel]

I never passed the speed limit of the highway and if I did literally everyone in Texas does worse as their “normal” highway driving. I can’t tell you how many times I was forced to do 85 because the flow of traffic or be rear ended and I was getting passed like I was sitting still. Good thing Mexico is so close though 😂

[@FR11]

#ITBSLikeDGuy 👏👏👏

[@josephdegoma3902]

Thats alot of improvemnt just itbs.

[@christopherwhite8877]

174 HP on the k20a3 head

[@thecarguymorales6342]

195

[@djpollo2474]

184whp is my guess

[@TexasHondaChannel]

If it had 3 inch exhaust I could see it being closer to that. It’s just the k20a3 cam profile can only move so much air in and out. The exhaust is on the small side too.

[@acevedohiram]
