Well im beginning to build my backyard special turbo setup and i was wondering, is this turbo capable of reaching my 200 hp goal.
When will this turbo start to spool and when will it hit full boost?

I am not planning to build my block, but i am planning for a piggyback/standalone plus tuning&dyno /Unichip/. I am getting some dsm 450 injectors,and resistor pack.

What would you guys recommend me to upgrade or replace, good quality at a low cost will be the best.

This will be going into a 99 civic ex d16y8 approx 74.xxx mi. This car will be mainly street driven.

I've got a td04 on my y8. Estimating by my 1/4 times I assume I'm making around 190-200whp on 9-10psi.

 

what is your setup? and what kind of engine management are you using.

 

wrx turbo, hf manifold, dsm 450's, 255lph walbro pump, uberdata, zex 59300 cam, etc.

 

When will this turbo start to spool and when will it hit full boost?

and what additional upgrade is recommended

 

it will spool pretty quick, as no lag at all

 

it'll spool up at 2500-2800rpm but it'll max out at around 6500rpm.

good for a daily car.

mine takes forever to spool because the wastegate is messed up. It should spool very quickly though...,but mine doesn't hit full boost till after 4000 rpms . It still holds 10psi steady all the way to redline and doesn't drop off like a t25.

 

what kind of fuel pump do you recommend? As stated im not looking to make some crazy numbers 200-250hp is my goal.

And how hard is the installation on the fuel pump.

 

u can get 200hp out of that , bu it will be like 10-11 psi
thats the DSM 15G turbo
looks like the 14B but its not

 

You should be able to. Those turbos are pretty efficent

 

i am going to make the same setup as you but with a b18a1, stock internals, stock injectors, walbro 255 fuel pump, FMU vortech....... how many hp would i have????

thanks

 

hmm, I'm guessing it'd be harder to find a turbo NOT capable of 200whp than one that is.

and yeah, i'd bet this one is.
