non built motor.... t25 turbo on the stock cx or vx manifold with a adapter plate. CHeapest and easyest way. then just do the fuel and ingition upgrades.

I was boosting 12 psi on my stock D15b. with 180,000 miles alreayd on it.
It held up like a champ!

not sure but i don't think there is a huge difference if any major ones at all.
But yes the usdm d15b.
I say the t25 becuase it bolts right on with no modding needed to the block. a t3 needs modding with certain manifolds

Really its a D15 don't expect alot of out of it. Never thought i would truly say this since i still have the d series, but Swap it then turbo

It's basically just a Z6, apply the same rules.

Always be clear on if its a JDM D15B (SOHC VTEC) or USDM D15B2, B7 etc (SOHC non-VTEC). Two totally different animals
