turbo a d15b2

when turboing a d15b2 how much psi can it take safly for a daily driver?

i wouldnt go higher than 150whp. dont try and boost on the dpfi system, gotta go mpfi.

i dont even think 150 would be safe for a dd unless it was a realy good tune. the rods are the size of a sharpie. but do it then once it blows throw in a z6 and run almost 200 daily

it could be, it could not be. whos knows. thats why i said use 150 as a max. me personally i would probably go for 130 or 140whp. depending on turbo size it would probably be 6 or 7 psi

damn..thats sad, lol 130 hp turbo honda... just swap in a d16z6 and have 128hp and not worrie about it. 300 will get you a z6 motor add another 100 with a tranny, you can run it obd1 with the p28, or use a pm6 with a vtec switch. than you save money and turbo the z6 ...if you want...just my opnion

Where can you buy a z6 for 300 and a tranny for 100.

i think hes talking wheel HP you'd be lucky to get 100 Whp from a stock z6 and not to mention the torque from a turbo would be a lot higher than the z6 also.

i am doing this so the d15b2 can pull the tall gears of the hf tranny i put in. i was reading homemadeturbo.com and they said a probe turbo will work but i was wondering if that would be good for a daily driver. any other suggestions on turbo set ups from other cars. i am doing this just to putts around and have fun you know tinker.

pretty much any car that came turbo is a good turbo

right but as far as how mcuh wil the d15 handle as far as psi

dont look at it as psi because different turbos put out different hp at different psi.

you want to look at it as how much hp do you want.

i am not looking for horse power numbers. i am looking for reliability. i just would kind of like to know what max psi a d15b2 can run at. (this car is for economical and relability only. if you saw it you would say ooo yeah hes right.

would 7 psi be ok for the d15b2 or will that be too much and screw something up?

5-7 psi would be good just run an intercooler anyways it will help. that will be safe and you still can have fun

5-7 psi will give u prolly around 35-55hp gain to the crank on a b2.. but what id be worried about is getting enough fuel.. im not sure if u can upgrade any1 of those (2) injectors or not.. something to look into if ur intrested.. if i were u id definately would do a mpfi conversion first.

you dont understand psi means nothing because its all about the cfm's it flows, for example(none of these number are accurate just pulling it out of my ass) a t3 might flow say 200cfms at 10psi while a t4 might flow 200cfms at 5psi. so that pretty much means a motor running at 10psi with a t3 will be at the same hp level as the same motor running a t4 at 5psi. which is why you dont measure by psi, you measure how much hp you want.

ok... i do plan on upgrading to a mpfi...

ok then will the turbo they use on Homemadeturbo.com (probe turbo at 7 psi) will that be ok on my stock. i mean stock d15b2
