you need to stop bullsh*tting yourself your car blew up cuz there was either a bad tune or no tune at all

B16 don't last on boost lame they are high compression which is not good for turbo so get you head out of your rear end and stop bullsh*ting the kid. </TD></TR></TABLE>
really? My tuner builds motors with CR greater than 10.5:1 and boosts them to more than 30 psi. Yes these are B16's. And they last plenty long enough too.

OT: The greddy kit is great, but has a major restriction in the exhaust. I got 248whp on mine at 12 psi. I built my motor with 9.9:1 SRP pistons and was at 17K miles boosted. I sold the kit and now the motor has passed 30K. Still hits about 210 psi on compression too

 

get your self a hold of a GREAT TUNER in your area, with the right maps, ignition timing and fuel. ask him what he can tune best and go from there with a turbo kit.

b16s last all Day aslong as they are tuned properly what people do is get a VAFC or a set basemap from EBAY and [freak] their **** up.

the reason they blow is lack of fuel and ignition timing..

Example my buddy has a D series a6block with a vtec head STOCK completely STOCK except for DSM injectors with a home made kit, Hes Pushing 16 PSI... 16PSI that **** is nuts. he tunes on crome and sets his ignition timing....thats where the money is at..

good luck

 

after doing my research i plan on using the edlebrock kit on my car yeah you spend a little more but you also get mor from the kit as well as a bonus the lines are installed on the turbo side of the kit"would still make sure they are tight though" as the even better bonus you get to keep the ac. this is my first honda that im bulding up but have bult many old muscle cars any exp. i have with edlebrock has been good.....

 

Reconsider. You can piece together our own kit with comparable parts for less money AND A/C compatible.

 

dammm you mean the b16a2 i just sunk into my engine bay isnt going to last long hmmm wish i knew this before i bought it off my tuner lol

 

Eh. Noob resurrecting a 3 year old thread. Dead topic.

Could have started your own thread.
It was a dead topic.
