i recently turbod my stock d series and i love it but now i'm ready for a new project and that would ultimately be to build an a new turbo motor. i was originally going to build a d-series and try to make around 300whp and use that as a daily driver, but i was thinking about it, and building a dohc would probably be a little better because making 300whp on a dohc wouldn't be nearly as stressful on the engine since it would be making power more easily.

but i know if i was going to build a d series .. it would be a z6, but what is the best dohc to build up and boost?

 

depends on your budget.

you can have lotsa fun on a boosted ls, with plans of an lsv in the future.

start with how much loot do you have?

 

well i mean i'd have to save up. i was figuring a d16 build might cost me like ~1500 and thats buying alll the parts and the engine then having it prepped and assembled

with lets say a dohc i'd have to get a new tranny and whatever esle i would need to do a swap, how much would i be lookin at?

 

any B series will be a good choice. 300whp is no problem, or what u could do is buy a stock motor, get a nice turbo kit, get it tune and call it a day

/\ x2, It's always about budget and goals.

Thats my next setup, an LS-T, that will be my gf's ride

 

vitaras

 

are ls and b16 rods stronger than d16's rods? they gotta be if they can handle 300whp right?

 

any bseries will make 300whp with a good setup and a good tune...

I would say GSR is the best all around head, tranny, block for boost...

but this is easily done cheaper with an LS... Like they said, its all about the money

 

how much would it cost to build an ls and do the swap?

 

b16b is the only real option.
