Going to boost my stock long block ITR soon.(waiting on more parts)
Right now as is it makes anywhere from 198whp to 204whp(N/a bolt-ons and tuned)depending on which dyno and weather conditions.

I'm hoping to make around 300whp when its all done. At the end of the day I just want to make more power an still be reliable being this is my daily driver.

Here's a little run down of the car and current parts I have.

Hondata S300
68mm Professional products throttle body

on the stock block with a cometic headgasket to lower the compression i made 300-350 whp on 7-11psi for at least 5 years...turbo was about the same size as well. make sure you get a good tuner for your hondata setup and you should have a blast with it..

Nice! I don't plan on replacing the HG. Just boosting it as is for now.

Turbogixxertunning will be taking care of the tune here in south Florida.

If u decide to put a thicker hg on I have one for sale should put u between 9.5-10-1 comp.

solis153

Thanks I'll keep that in mind

Kenny is a awesome tuner and don't worry about your comp. you'll be just fine. I'm running around 10:5 to 11:1 now on boost

4 bar map sensor for less than 1 bar of boost??

i never understood why people want to boost an itr. it was build for high rev, high comp for a reason. if your just trying to go boost, just do an ls, or a gsr..

high compression turbo motors make more power everywhere, on and off boost. muckman was making ridiculous numbers on his 14:1 e85 build

Higher comp motors will always make more hp. You just have to run better gas.

I've been dealing with Kenny for the past 2+ years and I've had nothing but great results with his tunes. Great customer service and support.

I plan on building a motor later so I figured why not eg this out the way.

I've never under stood why ppl get so butt hurt at the idea of boosting a itr motor but to each his own.
It's what I have at the moment so why not use it!

I had a similar set up stock us Itr block,
I was on e85 with 1000 injectors on 1 bar I made about 400.

If you can if get a bigger injectors and run e85

My .02 is don't run a cosmetic HG oem is best

The whole hi-comp all motor and low-comp boost unwritten rule set needs to die already. Like already stated hi-comp + boost makes power through out the WHOLE powerband just need a good TUNER and/or E85.

boostjunkie757

because i like getting on the nerves of those who say dont boost an itr motor..

Schister66

No need...keep the stock HG as is

Schister66

High comp is the new thing...the combination of good tuning/ems and better fuels means there's no reason to drop to a lower compression for boost. If anything, the ITR is the best B series for boost

I love my boosted R set-up. I have had it together for a year now on street/strip duty. I am making about 300whp 260wtq and it runs really strong. I was trapping 94mph in the 1/8th last night @2400 lbs and high altitude.

boostjunkie757

my opinion precisely. the head flows best and as long as you dont push it too hard its a great start...and high compression + boost isnt really new at this point..

Great info, researching into boosting my jdm itr as well.

U-C-IT

What about an itr with a built head? I made 213 140 NA build , but had the head milled with flat face valves. I Dnt remember how much the head was milled. Do you think this will make a big (if any) difference in being able to go with boost?

Thanks

Dark_Teg

You can still turbo it no problem you will just have to run better fuel. If you have E85 in your area your golden.

U-C-IT

Oh yeah... Definitely gonna go E85. Sweet!

solis153

Still gathering more parts for now. Went to the track last night for the last time while it's still n/a.

Dark_Teg

Not bad, best I ever did N/A was a 8.88 @80mph. I raced my car for 2 years N/A and pulled 1.93-2.04 60 ft's on slicks. After the turbo your car will be a whole new animal. First time I ran mine after the turbo I banged off the anti-lag for a couple seconds and all of the sudden could pull 1.70 60 's and ap 94mph. You better work on traction cause banging off the limiter in first due to traction problems can severely shorten the life of your engine.
