VVT ***** tons of bitches.

The dotted line is the old motor, so '99 head, stock '99 IM. Solid line is the new motor, same internals, but with an '02 VVT head and the Honda IM. Powerband is a solid 1500rpm wider than it was before.
294whp at 14psi with virtually no tuning - I'm sure that small dip is tuning related, probably super low timing from when I was trying to aid spool with VVT unhooked. I was pressed for time (had to get to a wedding, this is also why it's just a cameraphone shot of the computer screen and not a full printout) so I didn't get to play with it anymore. The '99 motor made ~265whp on the same dyno.

Nice work dude! I gotta tell you, I don't think any one on here has as fast of a turn around time as you do. Very impressive.
Just curious, what are you revving this motor to?

7400rpm. Still on a stock valvetrain. I'd like to get some valvesprings, SUB, and a set of cams into it at some point, and then I'll spin it to 7600-7800 or so.
Also, if you want, divide those torque numbers by 3.909 for real torque. I did the pulls in 5th gear.
Sav, do you have any pics of the intake mani before you bolted it on? How long are the runners?
