Hey everybody, first off i have a ED hatch with a stock b16 in it currently. The motor is getting sleeved, and new pistons, rods, and bearings. I am looking for about 380-400 HP on high boost/track days, and low 300's on pump gas/street driven. I have been looking at the drag turbo kits, they make the kits specifically for the b16 in the ED chassis.

On their T4E 60 trim kit it says it is good for 550hp, is that realistic? I will be ditching the FMU and have the car wideband tuned by burning rom chips for my ecu. Can this kit give me the power i want reliably and easily? or would piecing together a kit be best?

here is the link for the kit

For that price I would def check into cheapturbo.com's turbo kit's or even http://www.wiredspeed.com for there peak boost turbo kit. It has alot better components in there kit and for about the same price. Check it out here

Judging by the numbers at 12 psi, i am guessing all those kits would be able to put me at 400 hp right?

 

i dont see why it wouldnt with that turbo . assuming its tuned on a good fuel management unit and the fuel is there.

 

that peakboost kit looks like it may have some clearance issues with the fron of the car. Maybe, maybe not, but there isn't much room with the ed.

I really like that peakboost kit, i will look into it further.

One last question, 400 hp is reasonable with my setup right? with sleeves and everything i could probably make more right, i just want to get into the 11's

 

depending on the car 400hp isnt needed for the 11's. When mine was @350whp on 2700lb car with me in it, i was itching at 11's all day on street tires. I let off the gas thru the traps though so i wouldnt get booted for no cage.

 

The drag kit will support 400whp with the base kit. The turbo is good to about 450whp and the IC starts to get heat soaked past 400whp.

 

any other cheaper/better kits you guys could recommend?

now all i need to do is figure out tuning while staying obd0, hondata, zdyne, rom editing.....ughh!

thanks for the help guys
