I've got these is ideas in my head mang...:yes:

So, I have a b16a/b hybrid. I think.:???: I just baught the car like 2 weeks ago, and I have always wanted to go boost. From the looks of it, the engine is a b16a from a jdm SiR, but I THINK the head is a b16b, but im not sure. Regarless, I wanna know if it would be unreliable to boost it for daily driving???

Now, If the compression was to high to boost for daily driving, could I get low compression pistons for it and that would be it, or would there be other stuff that I would have to do to bullet proof it?

Any help would be appreciated.:goodjob:

ya, i guess. I mean, it wasn't really a real race. He just wanted to see what I had under the hood. So I said if he beats me he could see it, but I let him see it anyways.

But back to what I was saying, for me to go boost "reliably" I would prolly have to get tuned again, lower the compression, get new pistons, get new cams, and what else???
