HOW MUCH BOOST

[teglover85]

I HAVE A GSR WITH TYPE R PISTONS EVERYTHING ELSE IS STOCK
I JUST GOT A TURBO FOR IT I WAS TRIYING TO SHOOT FOR 300 HP
HOW MUCH BOOST SHOULD I RUN AND PARTS SHOULD I GET TO REACH MY GOOL OF 300HP WITHOUT TAKING THE MOTOR APART

[drmcivicsi]

10-13 psi shoud hit 300 whp i think

[EmminoDaGreat]

I wouldnt go over 10psi if you want it to last..

[-S Double C-]

I would think with those type r pistons your compression would be to high to run much boost at all. Id say dont go over 8lbs. Depending on the turbo size is what would determine how much power you made. Usually t3/t4's make around 300 on 9-11psi depending on the condition of the motor.

[green91]

a FMU with a sc61 at 20psi should do the trick.

[teglover85]

20 psi damn i think that would blow my motor yeah i was thinking the same thing around max is 10 low is 7i wanted to tune for 10 and drive around 7 when i race an important race i will boost up to 10

[green91]

nah the sc61 should do about 350whp at 20psi its a good turbo for b16. it would be a great turbo for an important race

[EmminoDaGreat]

lol

[green91]

emmino is obviously in agreeance with me. that makes 2.

[scttydb411]

you are better with the gsr pistons and i wouldn't recommend 300whp on any stock honda piston.

250whp on a gsr if you want it near reliable, 280whp if you want to push it, 300whp if you want to push it and don't care if you have to rebuild it with forged internals (recommended).

[teglover85]

i am going to rebuild it next year when i get my taxes my buddy aroon with a black gsr made 310hp on stock gsr and is been running for a long time i think with 10 psi and good tunning i should reach atleast 300 i am getting tired of getting beat by evos and sti and srt4

[teglover85]

i have t3/t4 .50 trim turbo what do you guys could i reach 300 with good tunning

[teglover85]

i am going to make sure the motor is in good shape to turbo problably leave it in a shop to check everything is fine with the motor before turbo

[SiRed94]

a FMU with a sc61 at 20psi should do the trick.

hahaha... agreed!

[SiRed94]

on a serious note ... you can put down 300 ... but even properly tuned... the stock ring lands can only hold so much for so long....

It could be done easily.

what kind of dyno? 310 crank hp or wheel hp? did you see it tuned, dyno sheet, or did he just tell you that? how does he drive it?

not saying it's not possible, but there are fewer to make that for long periods of time than do. like i said before, it depends on how you want to risk reliability.

if you want a good reliable daily then i recommend 100whp over stock and you don't have to really worry. as you step further away from that your risk goes up.

You tuned it scotty, at mainstream it made 300 even whp i believe. It was babied usually but there was a few times he ran the **** outta it against some people and it was purring afterwards.

I made 336whp on my boosted gsr setup i just got rid of tuned by john vega. It was boosted for 3 or 4 months before i got rid of it and as far as i know it's still running like a charm.

Like Scotty would know. Acts like hes tuned a million hondas or something.

not saying he does. Scotty tunes a **** load!!! of stuff.

[Formally...]

I think that 300whp is ok on a GSR with GSR PISTONS. From what I have seen the GSR pistons are stronger then the Type R/B16 pistons. I would be careful, the ringlands seem to be weaker.

AGREED!

cool. what's his name so i can add that one to the collection of dyno sheets. he sounds like one of the responsible boost-heads out there that doesn't pound the $h#t out of it every possible moment.

i don't usually recommend that power for ultimate reliability though. 300whp on a gsr is almost 140whp over stock.

[EK Hotch]

Yeah, not one of those "responsible boost-heads". I pound the "$h#t" out of my boosted civic every day, and she still runs great.

[EK Hotch]

Hell, ive got boost(not much) and i'm gonna use it...till that engine pops!

[scttydb411]

atta baby...that's the spirit!!

WTF is the Nismo Squad?

[spacelion]

What the f u c k is a "GOOL?"

Go research before you ask questions. H-T has plenty of info on this, you
could probably even find something on here too.

[teglover85]

well i take car of my car i think if i go 280 daily driver thats good when i race bump it up to 300 is not like i am going to be racing all the time if i had a car like this iw ould be racing cars that are worth racing like evos and other turbod cars

which is why i dont and didnt run stock mustangs gt's and cobra's and ****!!..LOL!!!!

[teglover85]

what do you mean by this. ah this is shawn you are always changing your name.
well people told me you ran a corvette and crack a sleeve in your motor on the green integra the day you finish putting the turbo on. i rather let someone that knows about turbos to tell me how much boost. oh and please take care of the nissan that was my budies please dont turn the boost up and blow another motor.

[-S Double C-]

You said you would only race cars that are worth racing and im saying thats why i wouldnt run that mustang you guys wanted me to run that night...it was a waste of gas. Yes this is Sean and actually buddy i was running 14psi on a stock internal GSR UNTUNED running someone elses tune for about a month not a day...and i cracked a sleeve AFTER i had done race PJ'S NEON while i was in the process of giving carl a ride in it...Get your story straight. I never raced a corvette period in my integra. I know more about turbo setups then most on this site...i know nearly everything there is to know. Ive blown one motor and one head gasket so i dont know where you get this motor blowing from? And NO MY 240 WAS NOT ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS...my 240 hasnt been brought out in almost a year untill i bought it and now it's in good hands IM THE ONE FIXING ALL THE **** UPS ON IT, THE DENTS & DINGS and within a month it will be beautiful with a sick ass paint job and wheels instead of sitting in a driveway fading like it was before i got it for the past year and for your information my bottom end is good for around 470whp my boost is set at 20psi it would be dumb to go any higher on a stock s15 BB turbo and even if i did turn it up more ALL MY PARTS ARE BALLER PARTS and would support it. My turbo wouldnt create near enough power to mess somthing up if anything my turbo would take a ****. Which none of this matters anyways because my motor will be getting swaped for a 1jz supra motor around the middle of 08 after i get my other job back. Know what your talking about rookie before you speak and quit posting all these help me this, how much this, what would cause this threads!

[teglover85]

well i dint say i know i said i heard and i was thare when you said you have 600whp on your civic we wanted to see if it was true shane mustang has about 305 prblably less all i said that i wanted someone to help me who knows and nobody believes you in town i appriciate you helping me and you problably know a little and i do belive that was my friends robert old 240 he was selling for 4,500 with a rod spun but the same color and same body dent same rims if it is not i dont care take car of your car get it tuned is a clean 240 and is fast and it gives me more motivation to get faster

Ive never in my life said i had a 600whp civic I had 494whp boosted ls then hit a tree and split my block in half then i had a 337whp gsr. Im not on here to start **** or argue Victor but dont believe everything you hear. I dont care what people believes or believed the car is gone now. It was Rob's car so your half right other then the name except ive fixed so much and done so much you couldnt really call it his old car anymore. Ive already done a street tune i just need to get it on the dyno. And yeah ive surprised the hell outta a few since i got it and gave a few motivation. I never expected it to be as quick as it is and no one else has either.

[teglover85]

man just take car of it i almost bought it it looks like your making it look batter good luck hopfully with my turbo i can catch up

[-S Double C-]

alright...good luck with your turbo setup if you need any tips or info hit me up i dont have any hard feelings against you...we just had a misunderstanding in the past and a bunch of rumors was spread.

[teglover85]

will do man take care
