New intake

[Relentless81]

It would stop a lot of people sticking huge VTEC stickers on SOHC Hondas if they did

 

[Janesy B]

I have lift too, what do I win?

 

[bledd]

Lifting your shirt doesn't count Janesy

 

[Sin_Chase]

Lid off guy at the moment but will get around to fitting something a little more refined eventually. Not decided between K&N or some others yet.

 

[-Ad-]

Maybe, I've owned both types and they're as good as each other, also its not just Honda and Toyota that have these technologies there are others

I assume in other unique feature their wheels have 'turn'.

TOLD!

Ah right i didn't think this was a honda love in. I just threw my experience and noise in too.

And lift is what differentiates the vvti from the vvtli so it seems a natural thing to.mention..

 

[acemastr]

I'll bring in the VANOS next

 

[Will]

I felt left out until I realised I have lift too.. god bless lumpy cams.

Most tend to think VTEC is only thing in existence that controls cam profiles they tend to forget about

Mitsubishi MIVEC

BMW VANOS

Nissan NEO

Toyota VVTL-I

The two do differ in there base form though. VVT is not lift VVTL adds extra lift, this is something that VTEC has already.

VTEC is not variable phasing, iVTEC allows variable phasing.

The two final iterations that you see today have been 'added' on top.

The VVTL is a bit crude as is goes from a nice roller follower to a direct acting tappet, certainly on the 2ZZ engine. Of course VTECs have had no issue with lift bolts or the oil pumps either.

As you say now many of them are similar, although VANOS offers no lift change. I liked the Rover VVC system, variable phasing AND rotational speed.

The only thing in common with controlling 'lift' is a camshaft, hell it can even have pushrods..... lift just kicked in y0.

Indeed to both, you do know what I am on about though, all are different implementations of the same idea

Personally i always wanted an sr20vet neo vvl with turb.

Sadly only available on nissan x trail gt... 280ps from a 2.0:/ why did they never release it in a proper road car?

 

[Relentless81]

The 1.6 NEO VVL still holds the record for highest power output for NA per displacement doesnt it?

190BHP from an NA 1.6 IIRC, sadly JDM only

 

[Mr_Sukebe]

Good man.
Remember putting a K&N typhoon on my MX5. No idea if it went any better, and under small loadings, was still nice and quiet. Bury the throttle and it sounded awesome. Well worth the dosh IMO.

S2000 has more

How do you find the typhoon? Is the heatsoak issue as bad as everyone says?

when its warm, and you have sat in traffic for a few minutes its noticable.

normal running and constant movement, the throttle response is still good.

I only want the tegiwa/gruppem for aesthetics really as my heart was set on one before i got the car.

I will be able to sell my typhoon on the bay for an easy £100 to put towards my newer intake.

I wouldn't suggest one in honesty, put some money towards it and get one of the proven intakes imho

or perhaps consider the hondata mod?

Maybe best to avoid then! you will definitely get 100 for it, I was watching a few that finished recently and they were over £100.

I looked at the hondata mod but I'm after the awesome noise that I guess only a cone will give me!

Technically no, but then maybe your calculator differs to mine?

SR16VE N1 (500 units from the factory in the pulsar)
197bhp/1.6
=123.125bhp/l

S2000 JP spec
239BHP/2.0
=119.5

Obviously you drive a honda from your sig, but that doesnt mean you should just discard other manufacturers and state things that are incorrect...
