so supposedly someone ran high 11's low 12's, with a d16z6 eg bored out to a 1.8l and a Jackson Racing Supercharger

Q1:
can you bore out a z6 to a 1.8 safely? max you could go?

Q2:
max hp (z6+supercharger) you can make roughly? around 200hp?

Q3:
your best 1/4 time with a JRS/C Z6 EG..state HP/Tq.


Is this possible? k swapped eg with boltons is at least a 12 second car with slicks.. the torque and hp from the z6 being bored out plus the supercharger i believe would be high enough to have an eg with the same, if not more tq/hp as a kswap correct?

I'm probably going to lock this later since it looks an awful lot like bench racing. But 200hp isn't going to get you high 11s or even low 12s. Maybe mid 13s. You really can't compare a 200hp K-series to a 200hp D-series either, if for no other reason than some pretty extreme differences in gearing (especially if you're running a 6 speed K-series tranny) Also a supercharger on a Z6 is pretty much a waste of money any way you look at it.

And where did you supposedly hear this from/see this at?

directly off of another forum from a couple years ago on another import forum site

bench racing what are you even talking about bahaha? im deciding whether its worth investing in a supercharger for my d16z6 or not and how far you can actually bore out a z6?? yea asking questions on a honda site is bench racing... theres no actual proof that you can bore out a z6 to 1.8, i posted this hoping someone would say "i tried but it made the walls too thin" by boring out a block you get extra tq. correct? and superchargers are known for reliability correct? hmm sounds like a pretty good dependable DD setup. which is, fairly obvious, why i would ask this... just cus i dont post on HT doesnt mean i dont know what im talking about homie ive been into hondas for over three years and now am working on my first civic build

So. You're rehashing a 7 year old topic from another forum here on H-T but the original link for the alleged dyno results is broken so now nothing can be corroborated.

It looks like they pretty much covered it back then.
D16 bored to 1.8 (just one thread I found).

Says it cannot be done.

If you checked you would have found that D-series is good for 200-220hp in stock forum.

Your third question needs to be asked in the Racing forum.
But if you look in the thread further down you would have seen this.
"a guy i know has an 89 DX hatch with a y7/y8 mini and a JRSC @ 9psi and a hondata ECU and he runs 13.5 on slicks. that car has to be ULTRA lightweight." as an example
So the claim this was a daily driver, @200hp running in the 12s seems to be HIGHLY questionable.

And you're talking smack to a person that can lock your thread at any time. Get familiar with what bench racing is.

could be true but car prob weighs close to 1600lb
d-series are known for their tq

i know what the z6 stock can handle, im asking whats the max hp n tq. you could get out of a s/c z6. arent superchargers known for producing low end torque as well? i just found a gutted eg with a 233hp 155 tq. running a flat 12. a gutted eg with a supercharged z6 also bored out to 1.7 would mimic these numbers right? idk how much extra tq. the bore and s/c setup with tune woudl make

you cant just bore a D series to a 1.8 without aftermarket sleeves and using a 1.7 crank from a newer civic 01-04 and will take some modification to fit. this will help with alil longer stroke the D series lacks. which if u blueprint the crank and lighten it you could rev it out more. alotta work when you could just build a d series and turbo it and run 12's or 11's. your gonna need almost 300hp to achieve this 1/4mile time with a supercharger.

Unless you build the engine the numbers should stay the same for a stock engine. I don't know why you think it would be different. And if you're talking about a built engine then that can't be determined unless you know how the engine was built so this question cannot be answered.

OBTW, Possibly there was a time when a supercharger was more reliable but that day is long past. That has been a fallacy/myth for quite some time. You can build a turbo engine to be just as reliable or more so, than a supercharged one.
