Anyone with turbo D15B2 stock?
i have a CRX shell and a D15B2.
i am thinking of buying a STD manifold, T25 and other turbo **** like a FMIC, BOV, Piping, Lines and a Downpipe of coarse. I know people have turbo'd these before so don't flame.
I want to know what kind of HP i should see from this setup? like 140-160 to the wheels? <--just a guess
remember this is a STOCK D15B2 with a homemade turbo kit oh and its converted to MPFI.

Well, if it's converted to MPFI thats a world of difference, I would believe on that 1493cc beast you could push it to 160 no problem, but as the Speaker said,

EXACTLY what I was thinking. Hell, you can usually find d16a6 motors for cheap or even free from other honda guys. I have a friend who picked up two d16a6 motors in one week (one was $80 and the other was free).

1) It makes no power due to a horribly restrictive air intake system, and 100cc's less displacement than the A6. Since he has changed the intake system, the 100cc's and the slightly more aggresive cam in the A6 add the extra hp.
2)The D15 has a slightly better rod-stroke ratio, so it will want to rev more (with the proper precautions of course)
1+2 = Don't knock the man for doing something, let him try it because he has nothing to lose. When you are in a forced-induction environment, the only way to learn is through research /trial & error. Thank God Columbus didn't listen to all the nay-sayers at http://www.Earth-Flat.com message board

take a few of each apart. the d15B has a superior stock piston shape than the d16a6 especially for forced induction/tight quench clearance, its much flatter and without any corners, mild, smooth valve reliefs, etc. 
the bores are the same, both blocks have a 5-main girdle, but the d15b uses a 3.33 stroke instead of a 3.54. this means the d15 has a much better rod/stroke ratio than the crappy 1.54 r/s of the d16a6.
the heads are the same casting, just the ones that come out nicest go on Si, then second batch goes to d15B2 and finally the worst casting shift ends up on the d15b1. a d16a6 topend with a little work on a d15B block is the best of both worlds.

here is a d15B1 head i did. flame all you want, if the d15 is crap, then post proof because your opinion doesnt concern me.

A guy on the CRX resource had his -stock-
DX dyno-ed before he did the MPFI swap and the numbers
were quite close to those of a D16a6..
His name is "Mr.Kwicko.." look him up..
My D15 ran good too..But i do like the B16 much better..

wtf. i got a free motor and a free car in perfect condition. im just wondering about turbo'ing it. god damn don't jump on my back and tell me i'm an idiot.
It's converted to MPFI so it should be about the same as a d16a6
plus i can turbo it for about $200 in parts so why the hell not

what he said
lets put it this way... both engine are great engine for beginners.... pls dont rag on the d15... its a very good engine but lacks the setup that d16a6 has... in other words if the d15b2 had a mpfi conversion w/ Y8 I/M and same aggressive cams like stock A6 it should be equal if not more w/ a better rod/stroke ratio...

i think by FI he meant swap from DPFI to MPFI not forced induction but i may be wrong.
i'm not an engine beginner lol i have done tons of motor swaps and builds. it will however be my first turbo setup but i have driven the same thing and helped build a z6 turbo.
true im most likely going with the a6 can and gear cuz it's more aggressive.

i was just talking about generally... a good start out engine... good for beginners because it has the potential and they are cheap... and comes free most of the time...

Damn the B2, I knew my sedan was on training wheels until I put the A6 in!
