I thought that this would be a fun thread for us all to post in.

How many turbo setups have you had on all your cars combined?

I'm on my first motor, turbo kit and car.

Turbo ****** like espanol, who have changed setups like they change shirts would be perfect for this thread

 

i believe this is the 2nd internal setup, and 3rd turbo kit setup im putting on my car this winter/spring

 

well, I'm still a newb... but so far I'm cruisin on my third motor and second turbo setup (went from drag kit to all custom)...

I wonder what some of those seasoned guys have been through

 

Second motor, second turbo kit, no parts were re-used.

$$$

 

let's see......first I went w/ the greddy kit on my factory d16z6. Then that went out, so I threw in a B20/Vtec.......and now I have a built d16z6 w/a custom turbo kit mankin a good amount of power

This is going to be a good thread..
Motors-
1-B17a motor- had a 75 shot on it and then boosted it. blew head gasket and bent valves
2-JDM b16 motor-drove it stock-SOLD
3-FULLY BUILT LS/VTEC motor- ran lean.
4-Now Another stock JDMB16 with sc61 tuned.
5-In the works fullybuilt motor ready to put in.

turbo & nitrious kit-
1-NX kit-sold
2-Rev hard stage 2 kit with sc34 -part out
3- custom turbo setup- inline pro manifold, sc61, precison 600whp IC, 3inch downpipe, hondata,etc..

Thats mine..

 

In the past year i've had 2 diff motors, 3 diff turbos and 3 diff suspensions

 

im on my second turbo setup, been through 3 engines

 

I'm about to put in the 3rd motor and 3rd turbo next month. 2nd tranny and clutch too. None were replaced becasue of failure though, just to go faster, except the stock clutch that slipped in 4th and 5th but still worked fine.

 

In my 95 hatch its started with the d15b7 i drove with that for a couple weeks. Next i swapped in a d16z6 and ran all motor for a couple months than slapped on a custom turbo kit. Now my car is awaiting a b18b with turbo.

 

I have 2 d16a6's that have both been boosted (both still run) and on my 4th turbo set up.

 

i have had a D15B Mini me
a D16Z6, that threw a rod
a D16Z6 NA that threw another rod
and my current built forged D16Z6 with my first custom turbo kit

 

2nd engine, 2nd turbo setup, second car too.

thats my time line

 

Here is my race car saga in my crx..

1. Running a D15B2 dual-point stock motor with a 55 shot of nitrous on it.. It ran 17.2 without nitrous and 16.4 with it.. It was a beater motor and ran for ****..

2. Swapped in a D15B7 motor and did the mpfi conversion on it.. Ran 15.8 without nitrous and 14.85 with 55 shot..

3. Swapped in a D16Y7 motor and ran a Garrett/Airesearch T3 turbo @ 12psi, 3" exhaust, AEM EMS, and a bunch of other goodies and got a best time of 12.75@108 and was putting out 200whp on the dyno..

4. Getting ready to swap in a B16A 2nd gen motor with YS1 cable trans and will be running a Turbonetics T4 and hoping to get 300+whp on a stock block..

 

2nd car and 7th motor setup past 2 years alone 2 D16s 5 B series last 3 turbo. #7 almost ready to go hopefully this one will keep me satisfied/wont have issues.

 

I think my buddy Jeff has everybody beat lol...

hehe fun thread


ok this is all on the same car since july 2000 when i got it

Winter 2000
1st setup:
stock d16y8 + intake + 55 shot Zex
15.4 @ 90mph (w0ot!)

Fall 2002
2nd setup:
same d16y8 + custom turbo setup with a T3 60 trim, vafc hack then hondata later
14.8 @ 6psi w/ slipping clutch
165whp/140tq @ 5psi
172whp/143tq @ 6psi
194whp/164tq @ 8.5psi
???/??? @ 10psi
sold the turbo kit but a couple months later motor spun a rod bearing (i guess from beating on it so hard when the turbo came off)

Spring 04
3rd setup:
built d16z6 + custom setup with an SC61
cam gear broke in half on the stock head...

3rd and a half setup:
same built z6 block + built y8 head + the turbo setup from the 3rd setup
tuned for 14psi but never dynoed... my guess was like 280-320whp range
blew a headgasket... fixed that... 2 days later it spun a rod bearing as well.

Winter 2004
4th setup:
stock LS + custom kit with a 60-1 hifi
working on it now...

That's classic!!!

1. 00 b16a2 with JE 9:1 pistons/Eagle Rods and Greddy TD05-18G Kit....275whp/216ftlb of torque @ 13psi. Sold to move out and do some other things.
2. Stock 92 JDM b16a with GT35E turbo-306whp/215ftlb of torque @ 12psi. Rings blew after 2 months. Never changed anything on motor as far as rings/headgasket went.
3. Stock 94 JDM b16a with GT35E turbo-311whp/217ftlb of torque @ 12psi. Rings went again after another month. This motor was just to get in until built motor was done.
4. Built JDM b16 with JE 10.1:1 Pistons/Crower Rods with GT35E-415whp/260ftlb of torque @ 17psi. Motor blew after 2 months for variable reasons.
5. Built JDM b16 with JE 10.1:1 Pistons/Crower Rods with GT35E-359whp/247ftlb of torque @ 14psi....

 

You guys should also post how much you spent going from set up to set up

I guess I've been through a couple turbo set ups/motors/cars.

1. Revhard kit on stock LS motor w/ LS tranny. 274whp/237tq @ 12psi
2. Changed turbo set up to Full-Race manifold w/ Precision turbo, GSR tranny & Skunk2 intake manifold + new tune. 12.89 @ 109mph
3. Spun a bearing in that LS engine and put in a totally stock LS motor.
4. Wrecked car, sold everything, bought a 00 GSR Integra. left the motor stock.
5. Bought a 94 Si hatch w/ NA jdm GSR engine.
6. Currently building up a piece of the urban legend to drop in the hatch.

How much money have I spent? way way too much.

I think I lost count after $10,000. Nah, I can honestly say though that after buying things for setups, selling stuff off of old setups, etc, I have a total of $12,000 invested into the car, not including the car. Thats everything from suspension to wheels to motor to seats, etc. Helps having friends in the industry that can help you out on things.
