guys i just need help with one thing.

i am running a stock b16a with gsr cams with a gt35r turbo running 10 psi. the question is will the stock engine support 1 bar of boost? plz help.

 

i personally wouldnt run more than 350whp, whatever psi that is

 

this is a very good rule of thumb for a stock bottom end. others will tell you to run more power. seriously considering the amount of boost being put in and the power being made, 350 seems to be a nice / happy power level to be at for a stock b16 / b18c1 (gsr). 1 bar is like 14 psi? problem is not how much psi you can run but rather what power on x amount of boost.

i have a gsr with a gt35r. im not going to lie to you positive pressure is 42-43000 rpms. the fact you have a b16 may suggest it will get positive pressure a bit later.

just my two cents.

 

so basically IF i run 14 psi on my b16 with a 35r turbo i will be looking more then 350 hp?.what is positive pressure?

 

Only way to tell is dyno tune the car. To large of a turbo for a stock b16 only looking for that power level. your not even in the effeciency range yet or just barely

 

for a dyno tune i would have to travel to another city which i cant at the moment. i am planning to build my engine thts y i selected a 60mm turbo. but thts gonna take some time?
i knw 1 bar of boost on this turbo is going to be alot of fun.

 

who's tuning the car? 10-12 psi on a gt35r should get you pretty close to the max hp of a stock engine

 

basically the turbo is a turbonetics 60-1 turbo which is a 60mm turbo. i have a pass this weekend so i was planning to raise the boost to 1 bar for it. a friend of mine tunes it for me

 

10-12 psi on a gt35r should get you pretty close to the max hp of a stock engine?????????????????????


ill be honest with you from personal experience with a pretty high whp stock long block engine man 350whp if still wanting to drive it on the street, and act like a 16 year old then 350whp is good.

now if at the track lol hmmm ive had my engine making over 550whp@28psi on e85, and this had over 50 passes on the engine before i pulled it for a built block. (the stock short block is still togather).

discipline is the key to holding it togather i went through a few built block because i still wanted to be on public roads and stupid at first, and i sat down one night and was like man this is getting to be to expensive for me so its just the track for me now

 

wow!!550whp on a stock block? but where i love e85 or c16 is not available. the fuel here maxes out on 93-94 octane.ohh the block i am using is sleeved! but the internals are stock.

 

e85 is avail everywhere you just needto find a shipper, and order by the drum thats all. i know that a pain in the butt, but it is an option to helping bone stock short block surviving.


revspeed also had a bone stock short block b16 in the upper 500's as well

 

so what do u think about 1 bar of boost with 60-1 turbonetics turbo on 93 octane with conservative tune?

 

positive pressure = boost (or generally any amount of pressure above standard atmospheric).

 

1 bar is actually 14.5 psi.
I would invest in e85 good stuff 105 octane

 

i would love to invest in those fuels but in my state race fuel cannot be imported.so we r stuck with pump gas high octane

 

you seem to be stuck on this 1 bar thing? is it just to say your running 1 bar of boost to brag?

 

I find that funny as well since he's in the states but is refering to the metric measurement.

 

okay leave one bar thing.is it okay if i increase to boost level to 14 psi from 12?on 93 octane and conservative tuning

 

my last pass was 12.4 @ 119 mph. i am trying to be in the 11"s

 

im not a fan of pump gas (91,92,93) on stock builds most of them seem to wind up in peices man


what state are you in i personally know a shipper that can see about this for you

 

its really all in the tune. ive seen a b16 last for 7 years on boost and it finally blew up on 28psi with a small shot of spray on a 5-mm turbo. Im going to be doing a very similar setup and im shooting for 400ish give or take

 

5mm or 50 mm?

@sanman. i dun live in states that's the whole problem. i live in the middle east since 4 years. originally from Canada Toronto. so no race gas for me i suppose. any other idea for the fuel? like meth?

 

@Catsman.. dont worry about the tune..my tunner is the best in the country and is known for his work nationwide.

 

so when it hits the port they would quarantine it then????

 

yeaa the customs will take custody of it and there is no way i can take it out then
