b16a2 / gsr turbo HELP!!!!!!!
Ok guys I just got a new build in mind and here is what I have
. Stock gsr head
. B16a2 block with block gaurd
. Eagle rods
. Stock crank
. Acl bearings
. P28 chipped with chrome
. I have both sets of si and gsr cams
. Skunk intake manifold
. Arp head studs
. Intercooler
. Garrett a/b 50 turbo
. 750cc injectors
. Bov and wastegate ( not sure on the size )
. AEM adjustable cam gears
. 3 bar map sensor
. B16 trans with gsr 5th gear
. 68mm throttle body
. 2.75 in exhaust from turbo back
. Greddy turbo muffler
. High flow cat
. obd 1 dizzy
. 255 walboro fuel pump
. Im not sure on pistons yet
So I just got all the turbo stuff and the block and trans last nite I also got the car too just traded a 98 accord with a slipping trans for it. The reason I am not using the b16 head is due to the fact the guy I got it from was racing and was going from 3-4 except he went from 3-2 and pistins hit the valves and destroyed head. But the block and rods were fine just the pistons were destroyed. I have a gsr head off of my b20vtec that I want to put on it. I am going to port and polish the gsr to get a better flow. I have never done a turbo build and I want to do it right. Also can I use the stock gsr pistons in this block which I know size wise they will fit but will they be safe to run on boost. Any help will be very appreciated thanks

Re: b16a2 / gsr turbo HELP!!!!!!!
Do more research.
Why do I say that? With a cursory glance over the list it looks like you have a clue but when you look closer you have big holes in it. It looks like you just threw together a bunch of parts that looked like they went together without really understanding how.
How do you plan on running stock pistons with Eagle rods?
What do you need a block guard for?
What is a Garret a/b 50?
Why the 750s?
Why the 68mm throttle body?
A chipped ECU on CROME? Do you think that all you need for engine management?
And the biggie, what horespower goal are you shooting for?
Do more research.

I threw all these parts out on the table to see if they would work I just picked up this turbo setup from a guy on craigslist and these where the specs he had. I have no idea what a a/b 50 is I am guessing it is a 50 trim compressor anyways I have a stock gsr block too but I wanted to use the eagle rods thats why I was gonna do a b16 withthe gsr head and if I need to buy different pistons like coated wiseco pistion 8.8-9.0 to 1 now as far as the block gaurd it is already installed in the b16. In which I have never seen a use for them but then again I have never done a boosted build before. The b16 head that was on it was trashed when the guy dropped down a gear by mistake. I know a stock honda crank can hold up to 8-9 hundred hp. Aslo I have not taken out the block yet to see the actuall extent of the damage done to the inside of the block and if it is not salvageable then I will go the other route and bore my gsr block to 81.5 and buy new pistions deck the head and block and then forged pistions. I just need an idea of what I should buy or how to build this engine.

You're going to sell your B16 bottom end, buy a GSR Block/head, turbo it on the stock internals. Then tune it with 8-10 LB's of boost and hope to get 300 WHP?
I'm at a loss at what your question is.
Are you looking for dependable 300 WHP? Or are you asking us if you can get 300 HP out of a turbo'd GSR engine?

Re: b16a2 / gsr turbo HELP!!!!!!!
I have both the gsr and si blocks but only have a gsr head my question now is should I do forged internals or keep stock to acheive 300whp and yes I am getting rid of the b16 bottom now and just do strictly gsr block/head since ot has a longer stroke than b16
If you loved me, you'd all sell me your magic cards to me today

OP needs to read all of the FAQ in the forced induction forum 3-4 times. I am not making fun of you, just trying to point you to some good info.
