Re: should he turbo his ek? (projectturbo)
Go for it here is what mine did on 6psi with a greddy kit. My motor has 27,500mi on it pretty close to your buddies. If you change the Intake manifold then you don't have to redo the charge piping...
stock d16y7 @ 6psi
y8 intake manifold
intercooled greddy kit td-04h
hondata s200b
obd1 conversion
p06
340cc injectors
2.5" spoolin downpipe
85degress outside.
First run for baseline was 142whp 145tq @ 4800rpm 6psi a/f 15-1 14-1 super lean
After a little adjustment by my tuner we ended up with this
163 whp and 158tq @ 6psi. I tried to bump the boost up a couple of pounds but the tuner had my injectors running 100% duty cycle and the a/f ratios were right around 12.5 at full boost.
I think I am going to have to pick up some 440's to get my extra 2-4 psi
So to all of you thinking of boosting your y7 go for it.....
