I believe you're going to need a piston with a 27 mm or so compression height for the d15b. According to this http://www.zealautowerks.com/dseries.html
vitaras have a 28mm compression height...

you're working with 207mm for deck height, 84.5 mm stroke and 137 mm rods.

84.5/2 = 42.25+137+28=207.25

a 1/4 of a mm or .010" out of the hole...i dont know but i believe you're going to need something similar to the d15z1 pistons (27.75mm compression height)

maybe look into using a d17a2 piston in the d15b, it will give you a lower compression ratio than the gx piston..

What engine managment?

.25 deg per psi is pretty agressive, and what exhaust was on the car before you put your 3" on? Any tuning in between?

this def sounds like the problem. .25 retard isnt much and then you got 3" exhaust without a retune. kinda looking for a disater. but you say you dont care so..GL with the new motor.

I'm calling overboost, did you happen to watch your boost guage before it blew up? I bet it spiked because of the new exhaust and you didn't catch it in time.

I've had problems putting in shelf stock pistons in the d15b vtec. The compression height(location of the wrist pin) is higher on the d15b vtec compared to the d16z6 and d16y7. If those vitara pistons will fit the z6 and y7 blocks, then I would go for the z6 because of the vtec head. The d15b vtec that I just built had to get custom je pistons made with the correct compression height. If you put pistons from a z6 or y7 in the d15b vtec, they will stick out about 1/8" past the deck at TDC.

It was mosy likely a change in AFR after putting on the larger exhaust. 14psi on a t25 isn't to heavy.

that little T 2 small screams at 20psi eh?

now that I look at your original post you say it was only on for a week or two which means it could have been damaged way before you even went to the muffler shop and that boost spike was all it needed to get into heaven.

yea i forgot about that, as soon as they hit 200whp they just melt no way to prevent it, they were designed that way

if y7 rods let go at 200whp, mine should have gone a long time ago huh??

im at 273whp on a stock bottom end and dont have any problems.

the problem must have been the .25* per psi and the 3" full exhaust...
