I just thought I should let the world know a bone stock D16 with extremly high mileage can be beaten and pushed to the limits without breaking if properly tuned. I recently bought a used 93 Ej2 civic with 180k miles and I decided to build a custom turbo set up. I've been driving the car for 4 months now on 20psi of boost
and the thing just won't die!





T3t4 50 trim, All custom top mount header, 3in. DP, 2.5 inch charge pipes, small intercooler
turbonetics WG, RFL BOV, engine management is SDS EIC-4, with a BTM, talon oem FP, 8 oem civic injectors.

We were just out boosting again and we thought we'd bring along the camera. check ou these pics and vids.

LOL!!!!

That's Too Funny.

Gotta Love The D

 

Links don't work for me, goes to the photobucket homepage?

That's impressive though, how much power is it making and on what fuel? Could you post the dyno chart? What kind of filter is that on the turbo?

 

thats just it I've never put it on a dyno and it' runs amazing on 94 octane.

 

what about the *** dyno?
what does it feel like?
that is bad *** lol

 

****, if you don't want it, I'll take it... and the topmount too while you're at it.

It's yours if the price is right.

 

You are using 8 OE injectors??

Any more pics/info on your fuel setup?

 

lucky bastard i cant keep built engines to stay alive

 

thats some good ****. You will definitely have to dyno that now so we can see what she is pushing

 

Any more info on the setup, like ems or general amount of timing retard? 20psi on pump gas is good just by itself, the fact that its on a stock D with a t3/t04... thats amazing.

 

gotta love it!

Its like one of those annoying but full of benefits relationships... you treat her like **** but she keeps comming back for more.

 

everyone that tries to blow their motor, cant blow it and everyone that doesnt want to blow their motor, blows it! BTW: can u get a 1-4th gear pull video?

sorry no pics yet I'll try to post some soon. There is 8 oem D series injectors, 4 in stock location with the other 4 installed in a costom plate between IM and head. BTW thats all with stock lines, fuel rails and FPR. Manegment is SDS extra inj. controller 4, with a msd BTM @ .75 degree retard per pound.

 

dope.

hopefully mine doesn't blow. :dunno:

 

And people say adding fuel by brute force and using MSD BTM's are bad things...

 

:crosses fingers: sure home my motor does the same thing, and not blow up... lol

 

haha thats awesome

 

i'd be really interested to see what this does on a dyno....

 

which map sensor are you using?

 

That is sick, any numbers?

Stock honda map with a missing link idles perfect at 900rpm, and the EIC-4 has an internal map good up to 22 psi we've gone as much as 21 psi no probs.

 

holy lot of boost batman!!!

NICE!!!

In for teh Dyno!

 

nice i can't wait to boost my beater....

beauty of it is, if it does blow, its only a couple bucks and a few hours to swap it out@!

 

bump it up!!
