Lol you dont need bisi's setup to make 500 get a holset and some vitaras

 

If you're really shooting for 500 then go for some forged pistons and rods. Vitaras are good for 350-400, and with the money you will put into a build like this its just nice to know you aren't risking detonation every time you come close to 10k.

 

that video is great. what kind of wheels are on that wagovan ??

 

nuts save the sohc! totally inspired to build one similar

 

ahhhh... not https://honda-tech.com/forums/showpo...&postcount=249

 

thanks guys! soo whats a good turbo camshaft for the y8 head?

 

If you're pushing 500hp you'll need a lot of airflow from a large turbo, and definitely some forged internals, sleeved block. Don't skimp on anything, make it reliable!

 

i have eagle h-beam rods. i have vitara pistons and rings! how much is sleeves cost for a d16?

 

slywfbpsi...yes you can make huge amounts of power on vitaras, but im speaking from a reliability point of view. I mean, sure, you can throw a crazy turbo setup on a stock block and make big numbers, but that block isnt gonna last a month. The vitaras are good, but imo if you're gonna drop the cash for a 500 horse motor, its nice to have peace of mind.

 

daily? 500 hp isnt realistic yet. unless u dump some serious cash down

 

whats better to do!

keep the y7 block and machine it and put the y8 head on it doing a minime? or should i just get a y8 block for the y8 head and do a full real d series vtec.

Seeing how they had around that amount of power in June, looks it lasted more than a month.
To O.P. those injectors and turbo are not going to get you to 500HP.

 

here you go.
this was my 530whp setup back in 08
