Default What is the easiest way to get 300whp out of a 2nd gen JDM B16a?

Hey I want to get around 300 wheel horse power out of my 2nd gen B16a. It is a daily driver, and drag on the weekends. What do you guys reccomend, I don't want to do it with nitrous. I also don't have tons of $$$$ to spend. If anyone has around this much power, please list your mods and a rough estimate on the total cost. Thanks

impossible to do in N/A trim unless you are a GOD.. so turbo power =P just drop on a bolt on kit.. like greddy/drag I'm sure you can get close to 240-260whp without any worries..300whp is pushing it I believe with stock internals

OK I was planning on going turbo. What internals should I change to get there. What PSI would get me in the 240-260 range with stock internals. I don't want to blow the motor.

go with a Drag 3 kit. you probably would want to change you pistons (for sure), rods, rings and get some stronger rod bolts, like ARP ones. u might also want to re-sleeve it to a 2.0l while ur at it.

hahah downey.. he only wants 300whp .. but yeah if I was going to run that type of powr out of a b16 I'd want to build it up to.. but is there any reason why u want 300whp and not like say 280whp?

sleeve the block so you are less likely to blow a hole in it. upgrade the entire fuel system, and get the **** tuned. i have no idea about psi though, it depends on how well you reinforce your engine. you may want to consider new pistons and rods too.

I want to be able to run low 12s or less in quarter mile. Don't really care on the actual hp.

extremley ******* expensive.

3000 for the kit
800 for sleeving.
400-700 for internals
300 for tuning

not to mention if you decide to go with injectors and a intank pump rather than the FMU and inline (i wouldnt trust it above 7.5psi) then you gotta add a few more hundred and a VAFC for tuning and gauges so it dosent explode on you, oh bost controller, turbo timer, etc etc etc.

expect about 5500-8000$ to get it running perfect.

Oh, and don't expect those times at SIR- the track sucks. I'm from Spokane too

PSI isn't set in stone its all relitive to what sixe turbo and so on and so on i would suggest that you do a search in the FI forum there is a LS hatch that is turbo'd the owner is very very knowledgeable read up on all of his posts
