Well i guess this is my question can i boost a stock d15b and how much and i really dont want to spend alot im more about the blow off sound really but yah.. i found a kit for $500
this is all the stuff tell me what you think.
T3 Turbonetics Turbo (has some shaft play, may need to be rebuilt but still works)
Filter for turbo
New Turbo Gasket for turbo to manifold...
Wastegate with 9lb spring and dump tube...
Turbo Manifold...
Big Down Pipe (better flow)...
Oil line and turbo drain hose...
Stock Steal Oil Pan with welded in bung for Turbo drain...
Intercooler 6x32x2 (has some dents from rocks and bumping a curb)...
All Intercooler Piping...
Some T-bolt clamps...
Blue Type H BOV...
Kenny Bell FMU...
EGT (exhaust gas temp)Gauge. Fitting is already welded to manifold and ready to go.

Re: can i boost a stock d15b motor?
there is a whole sub forum with most of the answers you are looking for.
just looked up and saw an fmu. thats antiquated tech. i think for a few bucks more you can do better.
i just installed a kit my friend paid 500 for, the diaphram is ripped in the wastegate, + 235, turbo is wasted, passing oil, 250 for the rebuild, fernco couplings instead of silicone, 60, right there is 1000. it has a drag intercooler, it will work, not great but will work.
put a little time into looking to see whats out there.
just remember this:
cheap - reliable - fast
you only get to pick 2.
so in conclusion, yes you can boost the engine, and please read the fi forum.
