Default Re: ZC pistons in D16Z6

First off, that is some crazy compression! Somewhere close to 13.6:1. Do you have a stock HG on it? Is this actually running now? If so, do you hear any detonation?

My guess is that you are going to need to retard the ignition. Especially now that it's getting hotter outside. I have an LS/VTEC with 13.1:1 on pump gas right now, but I am also using AEM EMS and only 23 degrees of timing.

In my opinion, the compression is too high to run on the street with pump gas, and no engine management.
