IHI RHB5 Turbo + 1st gen crushed BOV (For more boost) + 1st gen SMIC do you think this setup is capable of squeezign low 200'swhp on a fmu and rev hard mani.

the b16 is completely stock just has a gsr tb. Oh yea and it is a jdm b16 so the compression is a tad bit higher.

 

up

 

You should be fine with that setup for 200whp.

 

what fmu would you recommend to use?

 

You might aswell stay N/A if 200whp is your goal. Get a bigger turbo and make some decent power. You don't have to go crazy. Just get a 14 or 18G turbo and run 10psi and make 240 to 260 at the wheels.

 

i will upgrade down the rode right now im just going to use this. I got everythign for dirt cheap so i wil be happy with any improvement over my stock b16.

Oh and i have a chipped ecu on my b16 right now will i need to get a stock ecu? or will the chipped one be fine?

 

now which ihi turbo charger do you have ?
Just a little info on upgrading the ihi rhb52 turbos in the future for you.

The vj-14 was on the 1.6 litre 323/capri's. Turbo maxes out at 15 psi with 7.9-1 compression.
The vj-11 was on the 2.2 litre probe/mx6 which i belive made 12-14 psi (i believe) on these motors, but the vj-11/vj-14 hybrid on the 323 or capri is said to do 19 psi till redline. (6300 rpms)
the vj-16 is on the Thunderbird and makes a good amount of power and you can hybridize this with the vj-14 ( biggest intake cartridge you can put on a 14).

So which ihi do you have? it will say next to the ihi rhb52_____

 

its the 2.2lt probe turbo

 

ok its set to 7.3 psi, but because of the Pos wastegate it spikes to around 9-10 at 3k rpms. while you have it out i would have someone port your wastegate.

 

If it spikes to 10psi, that sounds perfect. That should get you 200ish whp. . .

 

what will porting the wastegate do?

 

eliminate the boost creep/spike. if you want to run high boost just get a boost controller.

 

how safe will this setup be for a daily driven ride?

 

hmm what are you going to do with your timing etc. you should also look into a wideband o2 sensor, egt gauge etc so you can monitor things. Daily driven maybe with some tuning.What are you doing about your injectors? you should really look into an apexi unit/piggy back fuel computer.

 

well i was trying to do a budget build. Thats y i was trying to stay fmu for now. I guess i mine as well atleast use hondata though along with some dsm injectors too huh?

what would you recommend to do with timing for a daily driver?

 

People seems to think that the turbokit is more important that the management? No chain is stronger than it's weakest link, and ruining a perfectly fine B16 with detonation because of "savings" in the management-section is not the smartest thing one could do. The tuning is the key to a happy engine, and an adrenaline-filled driver.

 

rhb5

its a pile of poo too small for any use

 

Yeah there small, and dont make much power. But I used one from 1984, original unrebuilt and it worked fine even after I replaced it for a larger one.
