If anyone could tell me how much you think a stock d15 or d16 block could take under wet shot or how much max boost it could take that would be very helpful in to finding which way im going to go.

 

for a d16 on boost, dont go over 10 pounds. most people i know boost about 7-8 pounds. bust if you go FI make sure you get a good tune

 

Probably be better in the forced induction area. And i think it depends more on your budget. Usdm d15 can't handle as much as the d16. Many people think a d16 with headstuds is good till 250hp turbod. Idk about nitrous. Google can probably find you your answers.

 

if anything a 50 shot of nitrous should clean your motor or so ive heard.

 

u can put it on a 50 shot. I wouldnt go higher than that though. The stock bottom end of a D16 is good for 200WHP about. then you risk the rods giving out.

 

both

 

Hp not PSI breaks motors, stock d series are fine up to 220whp, ppl run up to 260 and still fine,

 

my friend had 22lbs of boost on a Stock y8 reving to 8k with vtec disabled for a year...so there chew on that....
now he has a built y7 on 25lbs

 

somehow i seriously doubt that. It must have been a SUPER SMALL turbo. 8k on a stock head? Very stupid, idk how he didnt blow the head or spin a bearing. The bottom end isnt made to go to 8k, the head isnt made to go to 8k. It will have valve float after 7600. The bottom end cannot safely handle more than 200-220 WHP. People have taken it higher but its a huge risk and you really need a great tune and alot of prayers. 22PSI though? On a stock motor, he would be making close to 400WHP if its a normal sized T3 turbo. Which would be double the threshhold of the motor. So chew on that?

 

yeah i rode in it and have 2 videos of it. it was in the 300hp area on 13in wheels with snow tires...i know i know. the 2 videos are on my phone. what is your phone # il send it to you. after a year he blew it though. then put in a built y7.
he had a little garret from idk where. like an airresearch turbo

 

had to be a pretty small turbo To be making 300HP on 22PSI. Thats still pushing it really hard on a stock motor.

 

fun as crap though. i went for a ride in it and it had no interior. and he had parts chilling in the back....yeah...he gunned it and it spooled super fast and wen he shifted sum random altenator hit the back of my seat and a tire iron went flying back and he just kept going..i thought i was gonna die..

 

rofl

 

the guys over at d16turbo say:

the stock sleeves on the d16's are good for anything under the 400bhp line, (keep it safe under 350)

the stock rods/pistons are good until 250 bhp, if your pushing them that far, they'll give out eventually.

 

its turbod16. And ya 220WHP = ~250BHP.

U can push stock sleeves to 400WHP without issues usually.

 

jeff evans tuned one stock d16 to 300hp . i dont have to pay 50 bux to keep filling a bottle i always have boost.=o) . id say boost or go home.

 

oh i know its possible. But it usually doesnt last long because the crappy stock internals cant handle it
