I have heard that t25's work good.. So do the ihi's.. Personally I run a Aireseach T3 on my d16 motor.. I also used this turbo on my old d15b7 motor..

Defineatly a T25, a D15 and D16 are night and day, a T3 on a 1.5 is overkill! 1.6's can get away with it.

Depends on alot of things there.. But I agree that a T25 would be a better choice..

Yeah you do have a point, like after tuning and all a T3 might be ok. But for a useable powerband I'd reccommend a T25/28. I have a D16Z6 sitting in my friends garage, but not sure if I'm gonna use it or go H series.

There would be quicker spool time with a t25 but more topend power with a t3..

Yeah and that's just the whole thing behind having a 1.5L, you need the quick spool and a T28 turbine would provide just as much topend as a T3. I'm not arguing a T3's superiority, but when it comes to a 1.5L, the T3 just isn't the ideal turbo of choice, unless you want to hunt down thew t25 1.5 in front of you at the same boost level.

True.. I really only used my t3 on a d15 motor for about an hour or so(look in my sig) and that wasnt really much time to determine how its performace was and so forth.. I know the t3 works great on the d16 motor.. It sure it great to run the same boost as the gready kits with much better results..

LOL what are you going to tell me next a t3t4 is overkill for a b16a?
Anyways I had a turbo d15 for about 2 years. I also used a t3 on it (.42/.48 to be exact) I wouldn't run anything smaller then that on it.
The 1.5 and 1.6 are so close when it comes to turbo's it isn't even funny.
Turbo would spool about 1900rpm and have full boost by 2400rpm. At 6,500rpm it still wanted to make power but I had to end the fun because it was a stock engine.

If your looking for a kit it depends on what your going for.
Low end power mild bump in hp (greddy)
More top-end power more of a bump in hp (drag, revhard).

Don't lie you know that it's way too big I should know because i've never run a t3t4 on a d16.

A 1.5 and a 1.6 are not so close!!! A 1.6 a6 or z6 with my mods would be well into the 165+ whp range and about matching torque. At 5.5 psi I made 143 whp and 134lb-ft of torque on my 1.5L, now tell me a 1.6 wouldn't kill those number!!!!!???!!!! Go ahead and do a search, I don't care if you had a turbo 1.5 for 2 years, I have one right now. Your *** can lie and tell you they feel the same or even that they are worlds apart, dyno's show the real deal when using the same dyno's.

No a T3/T4 isn't overkill on a B16A, who the hell said anything about a B16, how the hell did a B16 get mentioned in a d15 thread??? Who cares about a B16?? Not me!!!

LOL pull your panties out of you *** now.
Flow wise d15 and d16 are very close. The reason the d16 makes more power is because if it's head.
A d15 at 6psi will make roughly 145whp and a d16 will make roughly 160whp 15 flipping hp wow.
You know as well as I know that tuning make all the difference in how much power a car makes.
So what if your d15 made 143hp the next guy with the same exact set-up may ,make 139hp (like I did) or he may make 150whp. Were comparing such small numbers it's pointless.

I'm not going to sit here and argue this, YOUR RITE I DON"T KNOW JACK ****.
A T3 TURBO IS WAAAAY TO BIG FOR A LITTLE D15.
Oh one last thing don't try telling me that a d16 will make more then 160whp because I've seen more then my share of dyno charts. 160whp is an average.

Typical ricer jiberish.....160whp means jack **** if you have a weak powerband!!! Key word here is POWERBAND, not peak numbers!!! Stop reading magazines!!
A T25 will have a much better powerband where it counts which is down low and mid range, I garauntee a T25 will hold off a T3 in the 1/4mi on a D15 at the same boost level and the reason why is because it's gonna make power and torque much sooner than a T3 and the T3 will be playing catch up. Now take the battle to the highway and we have a different story, but who cares. Who gets there jollies off by saying I beat a T25 1.5L on the highway????
Anyone who has driven a Turbo 1.5L sohc vs a Turbo 1.6L sohc will tell you <u>"Real world Driving"</u> they are worlds apart and the difference gets bigger as turbo size increases!!!

And I guess you're (not your) smart? A B16A with a T3/T4 and you're making T3 D16 torque!!!!!!!! WTF gives? you tune your own cars?
And about a 160whp D16 and better, please do your searching here on honda-tech before you make me link you to them myself.

While your at it since you feel obligated to criticize my set-up Feel free to show me some b16a's making 250whp and 200+lb ft of tq.
If you must know, No I don't tune my own cars I had a shop tune my hondata. Yes I settled for the tune but thats only a temp. tune until I get all my parts together for a build. I don't drive my car but maybe 3 times a month so it's no big deal. I don't need anymore power because I'm already close to running 11's as it is now, I don't want to take that step yet because I don't have a roll cage yet.

Whats your problem? Are you just stuipid or what?
I ask for a dyno ( Honda-tech thread) of either a d16 making more then 160whp @5.5psi OR a b16a making 250whp and 200+lb ft of tq and you give me this. Come on man don't avoid the challange, PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS. You said you have them PROVE IT.

I already know that d16's are notorious for making good torque, I''ve never disputed that. B16 and d16 Now those are two different engines.

Muhahahahahaahaha you don't run from the challenge!!! Explain why your B16 is so weak!!!

BTW, does it make you feel better to insult me and my intelligence???
Also D16's aren't notorious for making good torque, it's just that B16's are notorious for not making good torque!!!!!!!!

Yeah go right on ahead and rag a 1.5L sohc running a low 14 on it's 1st outting at 13 sec traps.....And BTW I did show you a D16 T3 @ 6 psi making 205whp Member Travsi...And yes your B16 is weak at 175lb-ft or whatever it makes. And I'm not keeping this engine either, I'll either put my spare D16Z6 in it or go H23A Turbo......then you can tell me if I have room to talk. to you and your B16. B16's are paperweight bro, get a LS or a 1.8L VTEC, **** go K series man drop the freaking B16

I'm not insulting you I simply asked a question. If you didn't know that was a question.

All the turbo d16's I've seen that are making any decent amount of power put down equally decent amount of tq.
Your correct about b16's being notorious for not making good tq. Whats your point? I never claimed that they did?

Back to there links that your going to show me, still waiting.
