Default Turbo B16B (ek9)

Hi there first post

Almost every1 in the Uk isn't keen on making honda's turbos!!

So lookin for sum help......I want 2 turbo my ek9 and am looking for roughly 250whp.

So can anybody give me a hand as to what i would need 2 to buy and what internals would need to be upgraded etc??

Did have a look through the 20 page long turbo post but couldnt pick out anything from it.

Thank You in advance.

I'll give you a very vague fuzzy picture of what I have I won't give you specifics so you can choose on your own.

Forged pistons 9.7.1 compression
84mm sleeved b series with deckplate
ls crank
ls hbeam rods
acl bearings
itr water pump
itr oil pump
255 fuel pump
fuel rail
fmu
Engine management
t3/t4 hybrid turbo
24 11 3 fmic
boost controller

There are many important parts to buy when considering a turbo kit all inherent to your desired final output or ideal power. Please read around the forum more and go to your local turbo tuner guys for installation ideas and plans.

you shouldn't need to upgrade any internals for 250whp on that motor.

Thats what I was going to say. Just buy a good, new turbo, manifold, and other parts, install everything correctly, and tune it right. The best advice you can get in this field is do it right the first time, your car will run great if you do.

You're obviously not looking in the right places

This is my car - and there are a fair few other turbo CRXs in the UK aswell



My advice would be to replace the B16b with a B16a, sell the B16b and use the profit to pay for the turbo

You could make 250Bhp on less than 5lbs with a B16B.

He doesn't need aftermarket rods or a block guard (they are pointless). You would however need a aftermarket fuel pump and injectors but no bigger than 440's if you don't plan on making over 300bhp. Oh and of course engine management... *cough* aem ems *cough*
