Need Advice On Safe Boost Levels
Hi...
Im just finishing up my turbo crx and im looking on some opinions on how much boost i can run on my motor once its broke in. My build goes as follows...
Darton sleeved 84mm B16
JE pistons about 8.3 comp
Eagle rods
Mild ported head
Std. Size ferrea valves
Ferrea springs and ti. Retainers
Edelbrock victor X intake manifold
65mm Edelbrock throtle body
4 bar map
880cc presision injectors
Ramhorn manifold
Holset HX35 turbo with 12cm^2 housing
3in down pipe with 3 in exhaust all the way back no cat or muffler (god i love no emessions)
Hondata s300 w/boost control
This is all in my weekend street car with trips to the track every once in a while. I would like to see your opinions for street and strip boost levels.
Thanks in advance
Eddie

Re: Need Advice On Safe Boost Levels
depends on the gas you run. I would say your injectors and fuel pump will be your bottle neck. should be a fun car though. I wouldn't play with this too much on public streets.

As long as you have a capable tuner,turbo, headstuds, and enough fuel you should be able to do around 40psi, you basically have a fully built motor
