Hey I have a d15b8 and I don't really want to do a swap yet I just wanna have fun with this one ..but I really need help making this engine relable when it gets forced induction and I have no budget for this..iEX..mini me swap then boost or d16vtec and boost that idk guys help me out about what parts to get

 

Why dont you ask in the forced induction forum on HT? This is the civic forum.

 

thanks but u didnt have to be so mean lol

 

I really hope by no budget that you mean you don't care how much you spend. in which case get a B18 and boost it and be done with it. don't bother with D series if you have money.

but on the other hand if you mean you have no money to do this with, then you should not even be close to thinking about a turbo....or really any car tuning in general.

 

oh i have money thats no big deal..but i was thinking of doing a b20 vtec or gsr tur o or boosting the **** out of my d15 till i blow it up and then slap my other motor in..lol what are ur thoughts

 

Why put the time and effort into a boosted mini me or boosted d16 vtec when you can just boost what you have in your car? Not trying to be a dick, but it seems like you dont really know too much (not saying that I know everything about cars I surely dont) about what your talking about. First saying you dont have a budget, then dropping lol's and asking not to be mean followed up with completely changing topics to a b series when the original question was asking about boosting d series.

Honestly, id say read up on how to boost the car all yourself (that way when it breaks you know how to fix it) and boost what you have now. You can do it for relatively cheap and save up for a build boosted b series on the side. This way if you blow up the d series you can be good to go with the b series. You get the best of both worlds too.

Read homemadeturbo.com. Theres a bunch of turbo single cams most of which teach you HOW NOT to turbo your car. Sometimes thats the best way to start.

 

don't abuse the D. they're people too. lol. i personally like the d series over the b's. not many people feel that way though.

 

haha I didnt mean to sound like i hated d's, i have a d15 myself which i will be boosting once i get my car painted. Im tired of the black front end on a green car look, I blend in a little too well over here in atlantic city with all the spanish dudes

 

your right i really dnt know much just barley got into the honda scene and iam trying to learn its just i want to do a mini me swap first that way if i blow the engine i sell it for at least 200 bucks becuse it is vtec but ill proly just get a b series before then once i got that then ill turbo my d15 and rape b16 hahahaha all they will hear is a whistle then bawwwwwww then i win lol
