did you guys see the scc issue with all the turbo kits? i got a z6 and i was comparing all of the kits. i was definitely going to get the greddy kit for price, carb eo, and because it's pretty complete. BUT, then i read that at the stock 5lbs, it only put out 155whp!? thats GARBAGE! is this true?? the mag also said the turbo is able to handle up to 250hp. thats feeble compared to the same kit for the b16 and it handles up to 400hp. can someone tell me if these specs are true. if not any suggestions for a cheap priced turbo kit (new) would be cool.

the greddy turbo for the sohc is really small..dont expect muchos power..checkout revhard or something

eg6turbo

5 psi and 155whp is pretty damn good for a base....think about a type r motor would average 163 whp....and it would cost 4k for just the motor...or even a gsr motor at 3k and its average is 145....greddy kit 1500 and thats not a hooked up price....if u ask me its a great updrage if u dont have the cash flow for a swap...i am biased becuase i have the greddy kit...BUT!!!! its cheap fro the power...no one ever leaves it at 5 psi anyways...just think turn it up 2-3 more psi and ur pushing 180whp...this much power in my cx gave me a 13.6 1//4 mile time....and thats not garbage to me

I have to agree with Eg6turbo, I went with an Apexi kit because of a awesome price at a groupbuy that was cheaper than the Greddy. If I had a choice right now without the Groupbuy I would have choosen the Greddy, even over a swap. For the simple fact that I do not like the front end weight that the swap adds to the car. It drives a little different, and with a B18C GSR swap you will have less to the wheels. However if you do decide to go more boost and you want to do it right your looking at a total of $3500 for everything with the turbo, but you will have at least 200hp to the wheels. Whatever you decide good luck, and do your research first so you will be happy with whatever you get..

i guess you guys are right. 13.6 in the 1/4? thats pretty good in cx. i have a hf with a z6 getting put in this weekend after getting it back from the machine shop. curious though, any upgrades to your motor to get that time? like fuel, ignition, how many lbs did you run?

BUt think of the torque that turbo will make. The 15g spools nicley with the tod4h housing and should make a ton of midrange power. I think that 155hp will go a long way for a good quarter mile ET because of where it's placed in the powerband.

My friend Dyno'd 230 to the wheels on the stock 5 pounds of boost on his b16.

my car is all stock besides the turbo, intank 255l HP walbro fuel pump and fmu...no ignition or injectors....but now i have afc hack up but still having problem with dsm injectors and new 440cc are on the way....heres some pics....

I have the greddy kit on my d16y8 and I like it a lot. I think it's cool to try to be a little different with the d series motors. I'm very happy with the power it's putting out. I don't have any numbers but I plan on doing the afc hack before any major tuning. You can't really tune the blue box anyways

skhonda

max-rev kit is decently priced for a d16. i think around 2400 for some high quality parts, the piping is DIY but it isn't that difficult. the tial w/g is set at .45 or 6.5 psi, good for 180whp on the t3/t4. want more power, just turn up the boost and tune it

EG, is this with the 5psi or the 7-8? Nice run by the way,only if you could get that MPH up a little bit more.

that 155 is w/a stock cat and no intercooler, so theres room to grow.

I am running the greddy kit too. I have the small ic also. We are going to be upping the boost again in the next few weeks. Just picked up a set of head studs and a 3 bar map sensor. Looking to boost around 13psi an hopeing for mid to high 12's.

I just ordered an intercooler from Tyrus. They look good and a lot of people have had good luck with them.

its with 8 psi and its in my sig....my highest mph was 104 for that day but the time was only 14.016....

and u can get drag kits or rev hard kits for 2700 shipped now a days....not too far off max rev's kit....and everything fits ok too...

dabrown

Oops read you slip wrong, damn that's nice! When are you running it again with 10psi? I would love to see your time from that.

Racergurlie

THis kit put down 190whp at 9psi on a D series originally rated at 106hp at the crank. The turbo is good up to about 450hp if you ever want to up the boost...

LOL where do people come up with these things?

NEWS FLASH: your turbo D series weighs as much as a B18C smart guy

egchan

thats pretty cool. i gotta know though, are going to up the boost on your stock motor, or is it built? i got brand new aftermarket bearings, crower rods and je pistons 20 over. some say because i bored it don't go above 10psi w/o sleeving it or at least a block guard. but if your motor can handle it, why not mine?

D series motor weigh about 100lbs less than B series motors and a turbocharger and other parts doesen't hadd 100 lbs to a car. Maybe 40lbs if you pick the heaviest stuff.

i run with the tires in the pics which are stock 175-60-13's and i spin them through alomost all second on the track at 8 psi...ten psi is too much power....i can get pretty consistent times with the boost and tires i have...i have all stock internals and some people dont trust stock sleeves cause they heard sumthing from someguy from another guy that blew his sleeves at 7 psi...its all a chance if ur block can take it or not....i had friends blow up half build built motors at 5 psi and other d series take 15 psi all stock for months...so it all depends....i will up boost when i get my afc hack up again...waiting for new 440cc....instead of dsm 450's
