    Default Boosting a D15b8?

    Ok Im thinking about boosting my eg so let me know whats up. I have currently a stock d15b8 in there. I dont want nothing like 20 pounds more like 6 pounds and thats it. So let me know what would be a good setup peeps. Also what turbo would spool up fast and reliable thanks.

    Motor: D15B8 Stock

    i need to know this too,
    from what i've been researching a 14b won't put that much stress on ur motor, but its a bit laggy, and a t25 spools up pretty fast but it puts more stress on the motor. don't take my word for it though as i'm still looking into turbos and things.
    6 pounds should really easy on ur motor though so i guess ur best bet is the DSM t25.

    DSM 450cc, do the HF manifold with the adapter plate (http://www.homemadeturbo.com/tech_pr...ld/index.html), rest is urs to find,
    or you could just buy a kit online and make things a bit easier on urself .

    do yourself a big favor get rid of the d15b8, honestly the cx motor is horrible, even at 6 psi boost you will be lucky to get 115hp. Save your money and just do a jdm d15b vtec its only 550 and then you will at least have a decent platform to start with.
