philly10psi

hey HT just a quick question...i did sum research but im getting too many different opinions...i have a d16z6 turbo running at 10psi that i drive daily. i wanted to know if i put a better intake manifold and a bigger throttle body will it make any kind of difference for everyday driving? and i do get one do i hafta have my car re-tuned?

You could stand to see a gain from those upgrades; however, they might not be a limiting factor in your setup at the moment. If you could give us a complete run-down of your turbo setup (and engine build if it isn't stock), we will be able to make a better suggestion. Also, as with EVERY engine modification, you will need a retune....first of all, to ensure that your Air/Fuel ratios are within safe range and secondly, to optimize the parts you bought.

One more thing to consider: A stock D series can be pushed into the 220-240whp range, but they dont like putting down much more than that reliably. If you're not built, you may have issues if you decide to make more power.
