what up peeps got a question about boosting. ill cut to the chase and spare all the bull?

How much boost can a stock B18b1 LS motor hold?
i was told 6psi and i was told 15psi which one?
I heard that that if i wanted to turn up my boost i had to get something called a linkage? something that goes near the map sensor?? lost me on that one

holla

 

First off, this is in the wrong forum.

Second, just to help you out alot of people are probably going to get on your case, or just ignore this post all together.

As far as how much PSI a stock B18B1 can hold, I would say 5-6 PSI. Depending on the turbo size, maybe higher.

If you want to increase your PSI, a boost controller will be needed.

If you plan on going forced induction, and not running a fuel management system (hondata, ect..) you will have to get what is called a missing link check valve.

Stock Honda MAP sensors cannot read positive pressure. If you dont address this issue, you will throw CEL codes upon boosting, and the car may not run the way you want it too.

If you plan on turbocharging your car, please read and research first. A good start will be to go to a book store, and get a book written by Corkey Bell. They most likely will not have it in stock, and will have to order it in for you. I had mine delivered to my house.

Tells you everything you will need to know if you wish on turbocharging your car, and dispells alot of myths about turbo cars.

Once again, I can't stress this enough; read, read, read, read, and read some more. Information is your friend.

No, totally false...it's Horsepower dependant if all the right pieces are used. This limit is around 280-300whp on a healthy engine. CHECK MY SIG!

False again, the honda map sensor is a 1.75 bar meaning it can read positive pressure up to 10.4 PSI....just stick to 10 PSI on a stockmap sensor...if you need a bigger map sensor get a 3bar with the appropriate tune.

Now that I can agree with. Go to the Forced Induction forum here on HT and just start reading and searching...most all topic have been covered and you could eaily build a turbo setup, without ever leaving a post
