well i was going to go with a supercharger but with the help of friends i will be putting a turbo setup in now for the questions i have a 93 Del sol i want 300hp and at least 290 trq at the wheels what size turbo? i don't have ac so i was wondering if i should get an intercooler the size of the ac condenser (a little bit thicker) but to fit in that opening? what type af fuel and ignition management? and will i need to do chassis reinforcement? thanks in advance

 

sorry i forgot to say it has a b16 swap

 

you are going to need to stop revving at about 5500rpm to get 300whp and 290tq. 290ft lbs of a tq on a b16 is likely to make 400-450whp. was that a typo?

is the b16 stock?

 

its stock right now but i will be building it. and i saw a kit that put down more trq than hp for honda. im just trying to make some power off the line. i want no more than 300 hp and i want the trq numbers as close as possible. i just need some help doing it.

A D-series at 230 WHP and 205 WTQ is way different than a B16 at 300 WHP buddy. As you increase the RPM's torque doesn't necisarily increase, so if you make 300 WHP you're not going to be making a lot more than 200 WTQ. What you don't understand is your car would likely be faster with 300 WHP and 200 WTQ than with 300 WHP and 290 WTQ. With 290 WTQ you're going to have a tiny turbo running a lot of boost that runs out of steam very early, so you really aren't going to have a very broad powerband and the car isn't going to drive very nice. With 300 WHP and 200 WTQ spinning it to 8500 RPM's, your car will be way faster.

 

ok so that said how bout the original questions with 220 trq

 

that sounds more realistic. possible on a stock b16, easy on a built one.

 

my main issue is what size turbo and can i use an intercooler that will fit in place of the ac condenser

if your goal is 220 tq and 300+whp, then i would suggest a gt28rs with a .63 A/R t3 hot side. if budget doesnt allow for that then a 50 trim would get the job done.


if the motor is built though i would want more power than that.

never seen an intercooler in place of the ac condenser but anything is possible.

 

i just don't know if it will be efficient and thanks for the turbo option i was looking at the gt28rs dual ball bearing
