220 - 230 is not pushing it on a stock d-series bottom end. whoever said that needs to keep quiet. i pushed mine to 300 before i built it. now im going for the 400 mark with pistons and rods and thats it.


its all in the tune! sing it with me!!!

[2Fast4Radar]

My friend's 02 Mustang GT SOHC made 400RWHP and 400RWTQ with a Vortec SQ-trim blower at 9psi.

SOHC cars can make power - you just need to get the heads to flow!

[LSTurboHatch]

so are we talking about sohc hondas or sohc motors period????

Nobody said this was a Honda-only discussion so I thought I'd mention a low-boost SOHC making some power

[Bruce Leroy]

So w3bcod3r..... are you going to boost your accord or not??

Ive only seen so many d series that last that are stock... i call bs ^^^^

[bernard]

It all depends on the tune, and how hard you run your car bro. If you baby your car boosted on stock internals, it will last awhile. I ran the bottle for a yr. then boost for a yr till my rings went. Like i said, it depends on the driver and the tuner.

where did you get your zc parts... and are they dohc?

not to thread jack but would a T3/T4 turbo b a good SOHC turbo? or will it not spoll up enough when the redline is about 6k?

DOHC or SOHC doesn't matter. And being a T3/T4 doesn't matter. What matters is the volume of air and exhaust pulses from the head and the turbo's exhaust turbine and exhaust housing.

Asking if a T3/T4 turbo will work on a SOHC engine is like asking if a Goodyear tire will fit on a Lexus. Maybe? It depends on what kind of Lexus you have and what the tire's width and sidewall is. The question is really too vague to give any meaningful or useful answer.

But it's very possible to match a smaller SOHC engine (since you are probably talking about a Honda) to the propper T3/T4 to make it both responsive on lower RPMs as well as produce good top-end. Things like head work, the engine's compression, and different cam specs will change what specific turbo or variation of a turbo will best suit the engine and your needs from the car.

You can now buy ball-bearing T3/T4 turbos instead of journal bearing which will shift the turbo's efficiency range to be more effective with low-end power. On the flip side they not only cost a lot more, but if the center section is damaged you'll probably be replacing the turbo or spending a lot of money getting it repaired. Journal bearing turbos are much cheaper/easier to rebuild. It's a trade-off. If you have the extra money then by all means go with a ball-bearing. I would also look into the Garrett ball-bearing GT-series turbos.

J series rules ive got a boosted j 30a1

[eViLMunkey]

makes me think about keeping my D series in my Hatch or at least switch from the D15 to a D16z6 and do some F/I work on it...

[.blank cd]

Is it possible to get some real hp out of a SOHC motor... and if yes what would you do...?

Please refer to Bisi Ezerioha. F22A SOHC non-VTEC making 500 N/A HP. that is real HP

Here's a full weight full interrior 4 door eg that has 3 mods to the motor it's self that runs 11.2's and has less then 600 dollars in his motor. He dynoed 405whp and 314trq with a ebay t3/t4. Still running 3 years later!!

http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1719843&page=1
http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1748160

Here's a hatch thats nearly stock with less then 4000 in the whole car that runs consitent 10.3's, not to mention it's been doing this for 3 years. Hows 471whp/356tq @ 29psi on 101 octane reving to 9100 sound? and this is not the highest power this car has made..not to mention he's also running a ebay t3 t4.

Here's a Friend of mines 500whp d16 hatch i talk to often on H-T that is DD with a/c and p/s still. Once again less then 2500 in his motor as well.

http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=2371560

ALL THOSE MOTORS HAVE STOCK SLEEVES AS WELL!

D-series motor are awesome to play with. MOST UNDER ESTIMATE THEM! No one around here takes time to do things right now days. Show me a 500-550whp b series that runs around 10 flat or high 9's.

[del_slo]

hell ya you can get some power outta the SOHC...i roll a turbod stock SOHC vtec and make 230-240whp

[jakerd4892]

My personal opinion, yeah you can get some horses out of a sohc. But you need to seriously build it before you boost it, and even then you run a high risk of blowing it. I would go with a b series, any b series. Yeah, it's a typical swap, but much more dependable, you can boost it stock and it'll last you. And if you build it first, and THEN turbo it, we are talking about some serious horsepower, so it all depends on your purpose, just a fun car, or maybe for racing sometimes, but either way, if you want to boost it,I would just do a b series swap
