I am buying a civic hatch that has a d15b. i am planing on turboing it to give it some more power before i do my swap (lsvtec). what is my potential outta the d15b? what is the boost level i should run and out of what turbo? also a good site for a manifold and any other suggest? thanks.

 

forget about d15b... just save your money to build a better plaftform

You can use eagle rods for d16z6 (proven) $300.

JE SRP series makes pistons for it also.

You are wrong, yes they have a different pin height, but they also have a different compression height as well, (like I stated)! The d15b2/b7 and d16s are all around 30mm in compression height. The d15b is at 27mm, yeah like the d17 from a 00-03 gx. That is why you have to get aftermarket pistons for a d17 to use on the d15b, no need to go custom and pay more when wiseco makes them for race engineering.

What does that have to do with a jdm d15b?

Why do you come here and act all badd ***?

That engine has small differences, any thing a d15 a d15 can too. As for you
