LSV Turbo Build Question.
Hello hondatech, new to the turbo scene. I have a question about a build i have sitting around thinking about slapping it together and see what the results are.
I have a stock LS bottom(b1) with a built b16 head.
b16 Built Head:
Full supertech head, with SK2 Pro1's.
Victor X ported to match a 70MM TB.
RC 1000cc Injectors.
B18B Bottom:
All Stock but a Block Guard.
(Simple Ebay turbo kit, t3/t4) (RamHorn Manifold if that helps)
Also a 3' Exhaust
i obviously have new Headstuds(arp with a honda HG).
Have a hondata s300 that will be tuned on e85. Im looking to find out whats the safest amount of boost i should run on this setup. I was thinking 15lbs would be good but then again im not sure. Also looking to see what type of power i should be making. I seen stock LSV's make 300whp. So for me is asking 400whp too much?
Had the pro1's laying around and heard they make great power when boosting (quote from Jeff Evans tuning). Just looking for some feed back guys thanks!
P.S.
If it comes to it i will rebuild the bottom just looking to see what i can make do with what i got, lol. Thanks again!

Re: LSV Turbo Build Question.
dont reference psi for what a motor can handle. 15 psi on a t28 would be fine whereas 15 psi from a gt40 would be too much for the motor to handle. set a hp goal and build accordingly.

Read the FAQs linked above
Read them again
Think about what you read
Grab a beer and re-read the stuff you don't understand.
you won't make 400whp reliably on stock internals even on e85... Add in the very reliable eBay kit (pure sarcasm FYI) and then you'll be hard pressed to have the car make it off the dyno under its own power.
Cheap
Fast
Reliable
pick 2 because that's what your build will be.
