is it stock? wouldn't run too much through it, no matter what size the engine is. i'd say 50 at most.

Alot depends on how many miles the motor has and if it is internally stock or not. I was running 50 shot on my stock d16y8 with 100k miles and it did fine but I wouldnt go any higher than that.

I would say do 50. If you feel comfortable with that maybe move up to 75 for special occasions .

I ran a 75 shot on my GSR for 2 seasons without a problem. Higher octane fuel, colder spark plugs and common sense goes a long way. I see no reason a engine with lower compression than a GSR can't handle a 75

i don't disagree with you.. but too many people don't do it the right way. so statistics probably work against you

Run a 75 shot. If you do blow it up, its only a $300 long block and half a day to put it in.

And the right way to use it on a D15 is in small amounts with proper tuning. D15B's have thin rods and even thinner ringlands. They also have relatively small bores, meaning they should be given lots of ignition retard relative to the extra power you intend to make.
