Hi,
i was just curious as to how many of you guys are running turbo setups on STOCK dseries motors successfully and reliably?
for how long and whats your setup?

would be cool to see pics!
and info of course, what kind of turbo, how much boost,
what kind of fuel management/tuning?

I have a 14b kit that i'm thinking about putting on(it's up FS.. but i'm not really promoting the sale.. still thinking about putting it on) but I dont want to deal with swapping my motor again(its a d15b) it woudlnt be the end of the world or anything if it blew.

Just the MAIN problem is I have no garage, so swapping in that motor in the first place was enough of a pain in the butt.

So yeh... lemme kno what you got goin on!
thanks so much!

Tad

how much boost

scttydb411

186whp 175wtq street-tuned w/ uberdata.
d16y7 stock w/ y8 intake manifold and throttle body, td04L, starion fmic, dsm 450cc inj, 1g dsm bov, honda std manifold, 2.5" carsound cat, greddy evo catback.

disregard the afr curve...it was w/ a sniffer in the tailpipe and is at least .5 afr off. my techedge wb showed mid 12's to high 11's across the afr curve. this is only street tuned and still needs a little tweaking, but i'm happy with it for now.

All you D-Series ninjas will soon blow your HG like myself and many others have.

It is inevitable *evil laugh*.

yeh im kinda worried about that
but i'm thinking of sticking to like 7psi

ion_four

I've just passed 2 years on my stock d16z6 turbo.
straight t3
tiny front-mount-heat-soaked intercooler
450cc injectors
Mustang GT fuel pump (190+lph)
Uberdata
TechEdge Wideband
EGT/Boost gauges
homemade MBC
2.25" crush-bent piece of **** exhaust
I've run between 5.5-14psi...presently 10psi, since 14 was sketchy.
It's like heroin. After a while, you have to get a bigger hit to have it feel as good

This next week, I'm upgrading to a teg radiator, larger front-mount, (atleast)2.5" mandrel bent exhaust, and water injection. With my 2bar map sensor, I'm goint to run 13-14psi (just so I don't max it out).

so little success replies from the ninjas.

we don't attract attention, we hide in the shadows.

chezicrator

go to turbod16.com for success stories.

just make sure you run good fuel management and don't try to push the block past like 200 or 210 on a good tune. I'm currently in the process of rebuilding a z6 and I'm sure it'll be more reliable than a stock b16 boosting.

chezicrator

just noticed you said it was a d15.. if my understanding is correct then those are a little softer. Psi isn't the question, it's how much HP you're getting. I've heard people say to stick under 180 for d15's, but somebody correct me if I'm wrong!

This engine was boosted for 4 years. 1 year with the above setup.
Just pulled the head off the stock engine. Damn thing looks brand new. Should have left it.

...so we can sneak up on DOHC samurais with the SOHC Ninja POWA!

Tad

more more more!

and yeah, 150-190 would be pplllleeenty man,
i'm guess my current setup is 110-120,
and I'm still not sure if I really NEED to turbo it..

if I had 190fucking wheel horsepower..
i'd be trippin...
heh.

TurboTeG4

I made a 193 whp on 9-10psi, ok 10psi but its a low number, Who Cares!!!!!
Greddy turbo/small intercool
440 injectors, walbro 255, vafc
gude head, cam , throttlebody
and all the blah Lah Lah's that I wont list
Sold it for bigger n better things
Oh I boosted it for 2 years before I cracked a piston, But I took it past 135 couple times n raised hell. 92 d16z6, N be prepared to do Head Gasket changes a lot.

I think the only reason you blow headgaskets is either improper tuning, detination, or a warpped head/block. Ive *never* had a problem with any of my sohc heads, even at high boost.

I had a 200,000+ mile stock d16z6 boosting 10-12psi with the afc hack for 25,000 miles. Drove the **** outa that thing. Finally a main bearing failed, which i replaced, and then the oil pump died and it took out the motor.

The stock little motor is hella strong with good tuning.

liam</TD></TR></TABLE>&lt;- Listen to this guy.

My setup much the same 2 1/2 yrs daily driven normally running 8psi but had it 12 psi occassionally, went on to run 16psi made 255whp spun a bearing or glazed a bore a month after that, stock motor well tuned apart from the last dyno visit. New motor in very soon back to the dyno on thursday for a retune.

BTW search

If all you're looking for is 190, you should be able to accomplish that pretty easily. You really won't have to worry about your headgasket if it is tuned well.

I made these #'s fairly cheeply, Drag gen 3 kit on deltagate @ 11 psi via MBC. Using DSM 450 injectors and honda resistor box on the poormans vafc tune. That motor would have held together much better with Hondata, which I use now.




Plug in the Hondata, a GM 3bar, an adjustable FPR, balance the crank, add Forged Pistons and Rods (Wiseco/Eagle) Then you can easily make this with 15psi with the DSM's @ only 60% duty:

USDM 4G VTEC

8-9 psi here on the hack

3500 miles,
and 4 mths

so far so good.. and it does gets a beating from me

but i think i dont qualify since i am built

Nice #'s Trip

I also feel that the HG issues on the sohc are timing/poor machining related.....or someone who tries to reuse their old head bolts and doesn't realize they are TTY (torque to yield) and should only be used once.

yeah i have a nice setup going in my car in a few months

I will be definately getting both head and block resurfaced
