hey rick look what i stumbled accross in the b20 testing

"The other problem is my on-going issues with my O2 sensor. It's operating range seems to drop down when the headlights or heater fan is on, due to some yet undiscovered grounding problem. But when it seems normal, if I can beleive it, the B20 is running lean on the LS ecu at WOT (DUH!). I tried adding some resistance to the air temperature sensor, IAT (TA on the OBD0 cars), to trick the ecu into adding more fuel. It certainly adds a bit more fuel, but only in the midrange, where the injectors are operating within their range. At WOT, it remained several light bars from full rich. Pulling the plugs also confirmed the lean mix."

damn im so pumped for my b20...I cant wait till next summer...


Traffic and the streets:
DAMN this engine kicks *** in traffic. Torque every where means your are always ready to pass. With the GSR, I had to be above 5000 to get the killer passing power. With the B20 it seems it is always there, anytime I am ready to pounce. Just sick sick torque from idle. So easy to catch other cars off guard, and leave the
crowd behind without sounding like you are. 2000 rpm passing is so easy. 4000 rpm is even easier. I love to leave it in 4th gear on freeway in 60-65 mph go-home traffic.. just about 4000 rpm at 60, and passing is quick and clean. Just press and squirt.

I love how the engine is like a stealth powerplant. Since it makes so much power at low revs, there is little noise. No buzz. Quiet. Low revs equals stealth power.
