Default how much to build a d16z6 tohandle 10psi (street) 14psi (track)...?

when i get a crx i want to drop a turbo d16z6. before putting it in i want to rebuild the engine and get the block sleeved and put forged 9:0 pistons, and stronger rods in. would this combined with a good fuel/computer system be able to handle the boost levels i want? how much power should this make and what should i be able to run in the 1/4?

With the correct fuel mixures and timing, you can safely run 14psi on 91 octane gas all day long.

i agree, stock internals...most people have been doing it here, i did it for about 3 months until i ripped the turbo off....fuel management is key.

you can do like a couple of us and run ls rods + stock pistons or what would be even better is ls rods+ forged pistons.

*i dont have my built yet but in a month it should be in my car

Who makes 9:0 pistons?

I'd say that pistons and rods may be all that you need...since there are numerous people running 10psi daily-driven on stock d-series blocks.

With 10psi you will have just over 200whp( if well tuned) probably about 230 or 240 whp at 14psi is this in a HB civic if so you could be running low 13s high 12s with 14psi, 10psi mid 13s with slicks though of course.

That would be me I'll be boosting 12psi daily driven, expect around 225whp on a conservative tune...tune your motor well!
