wanting boost

[clumsy_smurf]

sup guys, i have a del sol vtec with the b16a3. im wanting to boost it for graduation soon. but i was asking if it will be safe to boost it without touching internals. how many lbs of bost is safe and what not.

[Destineal]

doesn't everyone do 7psi for stock internals?

[justnprsh07]

10psi is stock internals.... but dont wast your money... do an allmotor

First thing you need to do is research as much as you can about boost. There is a lot more to it than slapping on a turbo, you need to know what injectors...fuel pump...has to be tuned...requires premium fuel...certain spark plugs... not to mention your motor needs to be running at 100% before you boost it. Just trying to give you a heads up, there is a lot to it, like I said RESEARCH.

yea ive already did a full stock rebuild. since the motor was once boosted, i didnt want to own a shitty running car.

b16 pistons are weak.

[clumsy_smurf]

yes i know this. b16's period suck lol, this is why i was wanting to boost it or either do a swap. its just a thought.

you have the set up damnit!
poor man's 2.0 type-r!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
b20vtec + b16 tranny all motor = atleast 13s

[clumsy_smurf]

ive already had a b20vtec setup. b20b block, and a gsr head. it was somewhat built but i never ran it. and i wanna boost the sol just to give it more get up. not to have insane h.p but just to have a boosted, somewhat clean car.

This thread is full of retards....

We recommend 100hp> over stock, for reliability concerns, however there are some freak motors that I have seen make crazy power and never have issues...

IE- 300+ hp stock LS motors
270hp stock d16y7
etc...

10psi is not the same on every turbo.....


Ask yourself

Whats your budget
Do you have funds incase something happens
Whats your power Goals

[clumsy_smurf]

my budget is around 2,500$.
yes i have funds
and i just wanna make atleast 250-270. nothing big.
