I have a low miles _ 93 jdm single v ( d16a ) and I'm about 2 get my hands on a jrsc that comes wit a 8 pound pulley

How long will my single last ?
its all stock ..

who knows man no one can answer that, if your motor is in good shape and you get a good tune and take good care of it you will be fine for a long time

i think by SINGLE V he ment SINGLE VTEC i call em the same thing for short im pretty sure he dont mean Single valve. no need to bash bro

nope i would not do it i had a friend do it on his d16 it lasted like 2 months then started ****in up eventually went.he had 56k miles on his car. where dumping a b18 in it now with 30k on it

The safe range for a stock internal D series is 220-240whp. Keep around this power range and you'll be fine. At 8psi, you dont have to worry about high intake temps and detonation, but be sure to get a chipped ECU and a good tune. Then just keep up on maintenance and you'll be fine.

did ur friend tune it? because ive known people that have blown their built turbo engines because after all the work theyve cheaped out and not wanted to pay up for a tune.

although there is no telling how long your motor can last without knowing the motors history, whats been replaced, and how its been driven, you'll be fine... but with 8 pounds of boost, with a good tune, and aken well care of it should last a while. at least enough to save for a rebuild, so you can push that motor.

jtune in wilmington de did the work and tuned it

if your engine is in good condition and you get a proper tune, it should be reliable.

A tune.

Totally fine on stock internals. twelve pounds is really really pushing it on stock internals and even then it will last you a little bit if youre nice to it. I had a friend on 12psi ran the car like 9 or 10 months then it blew up but you're going 8 psi

it's not PSI that determines the limits of your internals, it's HP. For example: with a big turbo it takes less PSI to make the same power as a small turbo on more PSI.

but he's talking about a supercharger, which makes substantially less power than a turbo on the same PSI. He could probably run 12psi on the supercharger and stock internals with no problems, as long as it's tuned.

Getting a good tune is what's going to determine how long it'll last. I had an old d16z6 that ran 10 psi on a 50 trim that got beat on pretty much every weekend at the track for a whole season and then was pulled to put in a build motor. The stock d16z6 still had prefect compression across the board. I tuned it myself, must of did a good job if it still ran perfect after all that track time.

I think you got your answer...if you want something more specific than this, go to the Forced Induction forum
