So as my other posts, i have a 1993 del sol with a b16 swap.

My goals are simple 300 to 400 hp ON the b16 (b16 block and head)

i hear mixed reviews, some people say that my goals are achievable using a supercharger and a nicely built b16 and some say to just go turbo (and i assume they mean to also build my b16)

so... who is right? can i hit 300 to 400 on a supercharger or do i just build my engine and get a turbo..

i am looking for that safe zone of reliability and power.. maybe someone could shed some light?

 

Im running a bone stock 130k B16A1

S300
57trim
1250cc's
3' DP and Tial 38mm
10psi
e85
20* Timing

If its tuned right a stock motor will last but tuning and the right combination of parts is very important, I also do not DD my car i do drive it every night when i get off and i drive the Fak out of it. Just my 2cents

 

Boost it! 300 whp is easy to achieve on your stock B16 with the right turbo set up and if tuned well, will last.

 

turbo will be the easiest to meet your goals and will leave plenty of room for improvement
