I wanted to get second opinons on tuning my engine, I can throw down some $ for turbo but i hear some NA out here (CA) can blow away a lot of B16 turbos. I wanna know what you guys think i should do

 

dont waste your time going NA with a b16. boost it or throw it away.

 

doood pretty much summed it up...


boost > n/a

Agreed.

 

Got it, Turbo all the way then.

 

all motor

 

i would say all mota..

but if you know what your doin and have the cash, then why not go turbo

 

You can make power NA, but the cost is obscene for the gains you will get plus you are starting out with the worst platform to be NA with.

I used to have a built turbo B16 and it was just violent in a 2600 lb car so no complaints from me in that department. Just stick with the snail for that motor man.

 

boost &gt; na

i wouldnt go all motor unless i was entering some all motor competition or something. For power, boost really is the best way. Trying to make a lot of power through natural aspiration is definately a challenge, and if achieved a great accomplishment. But the proper sized turbo can make a daily driven car fun and just as fast if not faster, for 1/5th the price.

 

i've mostly worked on NA cars but never really messed with turbo. still trying to learn but damn job gets in the way (who needs a job right?!) If i do a turbo setup what can i expect and will it be reliable for a daily driver?
