Anyone have a similar set-up? Have some questions.
<U>Car</U>
92 Civic LX
<U>Engine</U>
B16A3
STOCK bottom end
Crower Stage 2 Street/Strip Cams
Crower springs and retainers
Skunk2 I/M and T/B
InlinePRO log manifold
3" down pipe
Tial 38mm wastegate
Greddy Type RS blow off valve
2.5" intercooler piping
XSpower FMIC
t3/t4 .57 trim turbo @ 15 psi via TurboXS boost controller
Golden Eagle adjustable cam gears
fluidampr crank pulley
<U>Fuel</U>
Precision 1000cc injectors
stock FPR (i have a B&M if need be)
Walboro 255lph pump
112 octane race gas
<U>Electronics/Tuning</U>
GM 3-bar map sensor
CROME chipped p28
<U>Wheels/Tires/Suspension</U>
15x6.5 Konig Traffik
205/50/15 Falken Azenis rt615
k-sport full coilovers, megan racing rear LCA's, ITR rear swaybar.
opinions and constructive criticism also welcome but my main questions are.
1. anyone that is running a similar set-up, how much power did you make?
2. how BAD are the traction issues, meaning would it be worth buying traction bars to help with wheel hop?
3. anything else you would add before spring time for either more power or more reliability? i could probably get away without running race gas but it is not my DD so i don't mind a little extra piece of mind.
4. 15 psi on the t3/t4 will i be satisfied? will it be too much? opinions!
thanks for looking guys this is my trial run at a semi-built turbo car before i tackle the LS-V!

too much boost for stock internals unless you have it tuned by the hand of god himself... get some rods and pistons!
