can a stock b16 be boosted on alot.. ive searched. all i got was forged pistons and rods. im asking how much it can it handle with stock everything. pistons rods etc..with fmu

do a search for "stock" in forced induction

theres like 3 threads on this on the first page...its simple...the answer is NO

i have a stock b18c1 with hondata base map and ive been running .7 bar daily for 2 years/40k miles now. was good for 270 whp. your tuning or how conservatively you run your fuel is what matters. hope that helps.

the bottom end can handle 300ish whp, the key is tuning, u might wanna forget forged pistons for now nad lose that fmu and worry about thing like ems hondata, and uberdata

most off the shelf turbo kits are a good match for a stock motor(ie. drag, revhard, etc.)

with good tuning(no fmu) and about 8psi of boost itll make around 250whp and the stock motor will last for quite a while like that without any worries
