A psi goal isn't as important as a horsepower goal.
Determine what your hp goal is first, then search the FI forum for similar builds. You have a lot to learn before you start buying parts. Plan out your build so you don't waste your time and money buying parts that won't last. Good luck

 

look for dynos and go over a toal cost basis first. you could use mahle, manley, arias, supertech etc. all good pistons. it sounds like you have cash and no clue what to buy. you may even consider buying a done car. i've seen nice 300whp integras sell on ebay for 7-8k

15 psi on a Greddy turbo isn't really "big boost". At that psi, you will be around 310-315whp which would be perfectly safe on a stock GSR bottom with a good tune.

 

yes i have cash....and dont know what too do!!!!but thats why they made hondatech for right!!!!!and why would i buy a teggy when i already have one

 

i might not know much but a stock gsr bottom will not hold no 15 psi maybe 8-9 but not no 15 dude.......im just asking for some help.......everytime i come on here to ask a simple question.....i get so called pro freaking tuners...that put my question to dirt....man im just trying to have fun with my teggy no go pro.or win anything.....jus want to stick it too some mustangs around my way

 

a stock bottom end will hold 15 and will even hold 20. i know a guy who has done it. the engine has been alive since march and is just now starting to show signs of a warped block. if you do put 15lbs on a stock bottom end and your tune is perfect. judging by my friends you can expect 5-10k miles before it goes kaboom.

Weird that most of them are running over 20 psi. Please do some research before saying something you know absolutely nothing about.

Are you retarded? I answered your question instead of telling you to search like I should have since this topic has been covered hundreds, if not thousands of times before.

Yeah, why get advice from someone with first hand experience? Keep relying on the typical Integra forum idiot that still needs instructions on how to install their intake to answer your question since that is all you'll get with that pissy attitude.

Why do you keep insisting on 15 psi as your goal? Get a hp goal then research more. Then when your research doesn't get you an answer, post a question that hasn't been answered already.
Yes 9:1 will be good for 200-320 hp, it gives your tuner more room for error. Even stock gsr 10:1 CR is good at that hp range, as long as your car is tuned.

My buddy makes about 310 hp on a stock gsr motor with a decent sized turbo, stage 3 clutch and a great tune from Churches.

 

This thread is going nowhere fast. You need to research and realize that power is what kills engines, not psi. A stock GSR bottom end is good to 300-325whp reliably. Your Greddy kit will struggle to make more than that; therefore, running the stock bottom end will be just fine

 

coolbeans thx again........i guess im not getting now where by asking question...i just dont want to blow **** up.....just want a nice tune....i live in the tampa area....any place you guys know where i should take my car....
