Self Built / Self Tuned B16a
It has been a long road for me to reach this state.
I bought all my turbo parts used, except for my intercooler which i got at a steal!
I am currently at 14PSI Feels great, about 500km on the motor so far, no issues.
This is the first motor i built all by myself....
My motor consist of, [dont knock me, its a budget build]
USED Srp 81mm Pistons
Eagle Rods [NEW]
ACL Main and Rod Bearings
Fjt Gasket and Seal Kit, Includes Head gasket
ARP Head Studs
99-00 Integra Type R Cams
[Stock Valve Springs, 8000RPM Rev Limit]
Skunk2 Cam Gears
Turbo Setup........ All used parts
eCtune - Thanks Calvin!
3 Bar Map sensor
Tial 38mm Wastegate
Tial 50mm BOV
Spooling Performance Intercooler Pipe Kit 2"Hot - 2.5 Cold"
Precision 350HP Intercooler
Precision 880cc Injectors
Garrett 60 Trim .63 Ar
Ebay Manifold
Walbro 255 Intank Pump
Aeromotive FPR
B &R Fittings Oil Catch Can
Brakes
SS Brake Lines
Hawk Pads
Suspension
Tanabee CVS Springs
Koni Yellows
2.5" Mandrel bent Downpipe, and Exhaust
Blitz Muffler [Still to install]
Bride 1st Gen Brix Seats to hold me in place.
Momo Steering Wheel
15" Work Emotion Cr Kai Wheels
Autometer Boost Gauge
PLX Dm5 + Sm Afr Wideband
Innovative Mounts
Act 4 Puck Copper Clutch
Act Pressure Plate
Oem flywheel
OBX LSD
The compression Should be arround 8.5:1...
At 14psi, What hp level should i be over?
I know no bench guessing, but should i be over 250hp?
Sorry no pics at the moment, but will try to get some up soon

Re: Self Built / Self Tuned B16a
Go to a dyno. I think it should be a standard thing that after you finish your set up you should have to get it dynoed! Or else everyone will be like "I think its at like 300whp" then if they loose a race they will say "prob only at 275whp"

Re: Self Built / Self Tuned B16a
Without knowing which manifold you're running its hard to pin it down to an exact number, but i'll take a stab. I'd say at 14psi on a 60 trim, you're probably in the 315-330whp range. I'd give you higher, but that 2.5" exhaust on a low comp B16 is throwing me off...i'd like to see how close that is. I guess the power also depends on your tuning ability...sounds like fun either way

Wastegate in the center...
The timing is on the low side, 1* per psi.
Also is very rich, low 11's afr...
I like to play it safe!
I still need to find a way to install my IAT sensor in my charge pipe, i got one of those b16a types....

Re: Self Built / Self Tuned B16a
depends on the fuel^
On 93 octane at 13 psi, im around 11.5-11.8.
on my fuel blend, at 18 psi, it makes most power at 12.5 afr and 26* timing.
This is on a stock usdm b16a just with head studs.
