what is about the max boost on a b series engine that is non vtec and a 1.8l in displacment?

 

Really depends on the condition of motor, if anything has been done to it, etc... Impossible to answer.

 

I guess to the inexperienced tuner it's a pretty straightforward question. However, there are so many variables that make this question too complicated to answer. Check out H-T's Forced Induction Forums, and just do some research. You'll find out how to build a B-series engine there. Otherwise, a question this vague is unanswerable.

 

~-250-300whp with however many psi it takes and using whatever turbo will make it

PSI means nothing. A gt12 on 10lbs and gt40 on 10lbs push a big difference in air.

Just remember this:

PSI doesnt kill motors, HP kills motors. I have seen some in the mid 300's on stock bottom ends. It really depends on the tune and other variables.

 

We made 357 and 324 wtq on a bone stock Ls motor running on E85 on 19 psi. Car has been run on 21 psi but never dynoed at that level. It is the highest stock block ls horsepower I have seen. People claim higher, but none have a dyno run to back it up. We will be going back sometime looking to break 375.

 

how many times was the question asked . . . .

See the pattern?

 

depends on turbo size. example if using some type of t4/t3 hybrid...12 psi. But know this, your working components...the OEM parts...will have it's life seriously reduced. The stress from the extra load/hard work uses up it's durability. If you seriously want to boost before forged components...keep it low around 7-9 psi of course dependent on turbo size and tuning.

And factory turboed eclipses, saab, and volvo's make it to 250k miles how?

Please, elaborate on your theory.

 

I'm referring to the B18A/B the OP was asking for.

Nothing for relation to other boosted vehicles that has turbo as standard equipment. Of course these cars will be able to make it to 250xxx miles and so forth.

Lol, since when have they? Or do you include the 3 turbo rebuilds as normal maintenance? The fact is they run small turbos on beefy interals, low compression, and have head with ports that were designed by sicking a fat ***** through a mold, as in their effective V.E. sucks, contrary to flowbenches.

I've seen 400whp stock B18B's, and B18's that blew in a day with less than 10psi on a medium-ish turbo. Condition of the motor and the tuning are the keys to success.

'Max boost' on a stock motor is like a one-nighter with a fat chick. You just end up depressed, knowing you could have done better.

you got a bad *** signature!

HiProfile:
I like the one nighter line. lol
