i have b18c1 with 84mm cp pistons, crower rods, stock crank, darton sleeves,head been done with ferrea valves, crower springs and retainers, stock cams, jg victor x intake with 70mm bdl throttle body, percision injecters and areomotive feul pump and bdl regulator and a pro wastegate and hondadata s300. Last yaer I ran a cheap gt 42 turbo, this year I got a percicion gt4294rl and need to know what else I need to use this turbo .Do I need another wastegate? i'm using an e boost for boost control, the car ran10.72@148.12mph at Milan last year.

 

sound pretty good set up, wow good run and how much boost u runnng with the old turbo.

 

It also ran 10.2XX over a year ago!!!

 

30-32 psi

 

its not just the motor that will help you with times theres other things that need to be looked at , weght suspension , slicks , to name a few sounds like a strong set up , might just need dial in . good luck with improving your times

 

I'm using 24.5 mt with omnipower drag suspension and traction bars,my car weighs 2405lbs.also using clucth master fx700 clutch and stage 5 axles

 

up for a friend

 

not that this is a big thing but a bigger throttlebody is gonna help also , go with a 75 to 80mm but thats probly not as big a sugestion your looking for, really you have to show a slip with a breakdown of your runs, maybe its how your boost is comming on in 1st and second? your running a staged boost controller? maybe its your gearing , maybe its the tuning ...the car is fast so maybe its the liitle things that can help , you need tog ive us more info, a breakdown of the slip would be a big help.

 

I have yet to run the new turbo...it isn't even on the car yet.What I really want to know is if the set up I have now will handle the new turbo
would I need another waste gate or should one be enough?

 

ditch that E-boost controller and either use the S300 boost control or an NLR.

boost control is EVERYTHING at these power levels.

a second wastegate def. wouldnt hurt. you want to be able to keep the boost low in the lower gears.

 

What turbo manifold are you running?

 

It is a custom made front mount manifold off of Paul Bwahans 8 sec Hot Rod style civic

 

if your looking to just slap it on ya with a new tune it will work...but there is room for improvement elsewhere

 

So are you making any progress Adam? There's a few people in here that'll help you, all you have to do is ask man. Turbo Charged is a great resource, as is All Motor Mark. Mark's pretty close too man
