i think you would need a fork engine but i dont know.

To begin with, a t28 turbo would fall apart before you see 24 psi. You'll need a 3 inch exhaust at the minimum, I would strongly recommend you getting after-market sleeves on what ever engine you are planning to use and last, you have major research to do. G/L

24 pounds is massive.

i have heard of a car running 20, but it lasted 1/4 mile and was a massive waste. 16 is achievable.

the engine will be void on its warranty as soon as you bolt on a turbo. no, the spoon motors are made to rev and can handle around 12psi reliably, close to everything else.

set power goals first, if you have already purchased everything, dont expect to get what you posted here.

is your motor a b18b/a or a b18c?
are you running an SI, GRS, or Type R trans?
ARP studs?
Rods?
Sleeves?
PnP?
Which skunk 2 cams?
Pistons?

as far as what amount of boost the car can handle, it depends on the internals.

why the hell would you waste your money on a spoon engine to boost it? they make track motors not boosted ones. you my friend need to do some research before you post on here again. you have no idea what you are talking about.

if you have a spoon engine, i suggest you leave it alone. the R&D they put behind the engines is done for a reason, messing with it in any way defeats the purpose of getting a "spoon" engine.

Spoon engines are extremely expensive, first off. It's also likely that they are better suited for NA. That twin loop is gonna be restrictive as hail and as mentioned above, three inch downpipe back is what you will need. An intake using two filters looks "G"?.........right. Don't need pics of any of that stuff as we have likely seen them before or used them before. My guess......

























17 years old and never heard of Google. Amirite?

Im wondering the same thing . Im the first person to help anybody and i realy hate making people look stupid but this beats all i ever saw man. I mean realy if you dont know ask thats what were here for . If you have not a fucking clue then ask alot more . I promise what you asked makes no since to you so how the hell are we suppose to understand . I hate when kids get on here and ask if i build this this and this how much power will i make or just try to pretend like they they no anything about anything so people will think there building a fast car but this is 100 times worse then that man. Its like saying im going to call honda and buy a 5,000 dollar brand new type r motor so i can tear it down threw all the stock stuff away and put different stuff in the place of it why would you do that when a clean block and head to start you off would be less then 1,000 dollars . If you have no clue what your talking about then post up a thread saying new to the honda game and i would like to build a turbo b series motor. I like skunk cams what do you think a nice setup would be and im sure everybody will be glad to help you and you want look like nearly as much like a idiot as you do now . If this thread was posting to get a laugh then you did a good job because im laughing my ass off lol.

1 what the hell are you talking about ?
2 what the hell are you talking about ?
3 did someone actualy reply with any kind of answer i mean realy dont ag this poor kid on .
4 what the hell are you talking about lol.
5 basically nothing that you are trying to do has any logic whats so ever.

Why would anyone have Skunk2 cams in a Spoon motor? Regardless, if you really do have a Spoon motor then you can afford to have another one built for boost.

lol that is true if you realy do have a spoon motor then you have enough money to pay somebody that actualy knows what there doing to build you whatever you want so i would go that route lol. Pay somebody else that knows what the hell there talking about.
