Building The B16 Need Some Imput!!!
Well decided to build the B16 shortblock so it can handle boost a bit better...This is what I was planing:
B16 Shortblock
Mahle Pistons stock bore 9.2:1 compression
Scat Rods
B16 Head
GSR cams
ARP headbolts
Ferrea springs and retainers
Blox Intake Manifold
70mm Throttle Body
Transmission
B16 Hydraulic tranny
Exedy Stage 2 Clutch
Fuel
Walbro 255lph
Blox FPR
Precision 780cc Injectors
Turbo Stuff
Ramhorn manifold
3" exhaust
Precision sc3431e 57trim 540hp capable
Tial 38mm Wastegate 15lb spring
FMIC and greddy bov
Management
Neptune
AEM Wideband
Ok the question is can this setup handle 450hp??? Or what do i need to upgrade

Re: Building The B16 Need Some Imput!!! (red_hatchback)
sounds good, i heard mahle pistons arent really forged thouhg, there some high tech aluminum cast. but why are you getting valve springs and retainers for stock cams? also im assuming you meant arp headSTUDS? one last thing the exedy stage II is rated at 228wtq, youll be making more than that from what it sounds like so on paper, it wont hold, though im not sure about the real world experience on that clutch, anyone care to chime in on the clutch?

Motor setup should easily hold that power. Good valvetrain is important because with a b16 you will have to rev it to stay in the powerband. I made 570whp with my stock sleeve'd b16 JE/Eagle combo and it held together for a while before eventually cracking a sleeve. Probably made close to 100 passes at the 425-450whp level with it on pump gas.

Re: (quicksilver1689)
well the reason i'm using gsr cams is that i don't really know which ones to get if someone can help with that, and also what clutch would you recommend??

type r cams increase the power considerably.
I dont know much about aftermarket cams though, just have heard good things about type r's
the type r cams in refering to are 00, 01 itr, or ctr cams.

if you plan on drag racing then go for unsprung, if you drive a lot on the street a sprung hub is better imo.
