Default What are the potentials of the D15B8??

D15B8 Honda Civic CX 1992-1995.

what are the potential for this engine if going boost. i have read many posts about the SOHC vtec's putting out pretty good numbers with a fully built block (ie. pistons, rods, sleeves) but is the potential for the civic hatch CX engine the same??

D15 in stock form have very weak rods. With a built block you can go really far. How much do you want to spend?

I was at iRev this past weekend in Chicago with my 92 DX beater. Its all banged up and crap, and I was racing showcars in the figure 8 parking lot and spankin them I practically owned a new SE-R that was all decked out. hahaha

it was hilarious. my turbo si wasn't done, so i drove the beater.

With a $2200 build you could boost 15psi easily. Thats not including the price of the turbo and accesories of course.
