Ok, I got a '90 Hatch DX for $100 off a little old lady original owner and decided I want a turbo car. What I want to do next year is Turbo 1.8LS sleaved to 2.0, T3/4 built, 400hp stupid fast. I will do this next year when I get the cash saved up. Untill then I plan on turboing the D15B2. I have a HF manifold and am getting a 14B eclipse turbo. I plan on swapping the intake manifold and multiport injection of the D16A6. I am going to run DSM 450cc injectors and a S-AFC. I will probally go ahead and buy a good front mount because it will be used with the B-series set-up of the future. Probally just going to use a MSD BTM on the 1.5 also. Any suggestions. All the stuff I have pretty much nothing invested in, and just plan on boosting it for a year or so, then swapping in the big boy. Stock just really sucks after driving my N/A CRX.

 

Anyone.....please......

 

the B2 motor has some of the smallest rods on the face of this planet. And the crank journals are pretty small too. Dont expect to push alot of boost through that motor.

Also the 14b has a internal wg with a ~9-10psi spring. If you dont want to boost that much you are going to need to get that modified or get a new one.

would I be better off throwing in a d16a6 and turboing it? Are the rods any stronger. I don't want to go internal. I don't want to wrap a bunch of money up in it. I have the B-series project to save for.

 

the a6 is pretty much like every 88+ d16..the rods are much stronger. The block is much better!

go ahead and boost the b2. it will be a learning experience and if you blow it up do your swap. i have an intake manifold for sale pm me if you are interested.
