Its all about your fuel management. You can boost up to 7psi on a SOHC but your hear different 6-10psi. Get it tune and nice size injectors and you can boost a safe 7psi and be pretty quick depending on what tranny you got

What I was saying it could be pretty quick depending if you had an ex/si tranny vs CX/VX tranny. Stock lx motor or D15B7 is around 102 or 106ish I dont remeber off hand. What turbo is he selling you. Model trim?

You dont need a 10lb flywheel it be a good investment to get a lighter flywheel since Ds weigh around 20lbs

$500 for a complete turbo kit?...I'd like to hear what is included please.

You CANNOT say: "How much whp will i be making on 6lbs". There are simply too many factors that come into play when comparing psi and power (to the wheels). For example: 6psi on a t3 is COMPLETELY different than 6psi on an SC61 or Gt35.

It depends on your tuning, your fuel management, manifold, the size of your DP/Exhaust, etc.

Waaay too many things to consider.

I dont think you need a lightened flywheel period. Its not like its bad, but a fast-spooling turbo will get those revs up quickly enough

very true points, i had a 10 lb flywheel because of the two step, bounced a lot quicker for a more precise rpm launch
