Ok guys im turboing my type r ive got a hks manifold, a garrett gt25 ball bearing turbo and a sperco liquid intercooler im looking for 250whp. as of now my motor is stock, what would it take to get that kinda power and keep it reliable? what do i need to get done? this car is for autocross that's why im using such a small turbo and only looking for 250whp. also my daily driver.

 

ems and and a good tune/tuner

 

get urself an autronic pnp board from either: tony1 or darkturbo (some know him as arturbo) or ben strader (efi101).

u cant go wrong.

 

get a thick headgasket....

and make as much power or more than i am.

 

Getting a thicker HG will lower your compression. I don't see any relation how this can make more power ?! If anything, its quite the opposite!

The reason it would be a good idea to lower the compression is because it will be much safer to run more boost and easier to tune. I am guessing this is a daily driver on pump gas, so lower compression is your friend. You probably won't notice much low end difference anyways.

 

since you already have a good HG on there why don't you blow that one first...

 

I'd concentrate on the tuning and managemen aspect and keep the compression for your AutoX experience. The on/off boost response would be a bit easier to navigate w/ the normal compression of the Type R. Just don't skimp on the tuning aspect, please.

 

i was thinking of getting hondata how well would this work for my setup? do any of you guys use hondata?

 

what's hondata?

so are you guys saying i can get 250whp with stock internals?

 

no one know if need to build my engine to get this much power

Good advice. Follow it

 

i made 230 whp with a 9:1 1.6L at 7 psi. 250 should be no problem.

 

It should not be a problem producing that kind of power with what you have, but your issue will be reliability. Like others before me replied, a good tune/tuner will be essential to reliable horsepower. If it were me and I were keeping the internals stock, I would opt for the thicker headgasket to drop the compression ratio a bit, just so you can A either run more boost, or B not have to worry about detonation as much. Good Luck
