Turbo Charge My Show Carsoul180 03-23-2002, 02:53 PM Hey all...as some of you know, i'm building a show civic, it only has the d series engine in it. I was contemplating buying a b16a, but i'm wondering, i really don't want a lot of power, i mean, i'd be more than happy with 150whp, so i'm wondering, what kind of power could i expect from a turbo on my dx engine. Also, what kind of mods should i do to the car if it has slightly high km, but in good mechanical shape? PLease help me out guys, thanks a lot Mike soul180 03-23-2002, 05:26 PM ne1? xivera 03-23-2002, 07:22 PM 1stly, you can turbocharge any car to any level w/ the right amount of fuel and ignition measures. (As well as any further mechanical tuning.) How much mileage does your engine have on it? soul180 03-23-2002, 09:02 PM my car has 200000 km on it, i don't know waht that is in miles.... like i said though, it is mechanically sound, but i do know that stuff still wears with time. How much boost is needed to get to 150-160whp, i don't image that much? what kind of upgrades would be needed to achieve that power level do you think???? thanks markpa 03-24-2002, 02:23 AM with that mileage youre better of doing a swap, cause a turbo is gunna run the engine into the ground.
