please post pics and any mods to make ur turbo fit im just wondering how to do

see my b16a sits close to the radiaton fans i have the arizona race mounts maybe thats why ???? i dont think my last b16 rex sat so far up but its been awhile since ive seen others so thanx

 

Have you checked out Beua's on http://www.homemadeturbo.com , he actually has had two setups on there. Their latest is pretty cool, but I was kind of dissapointed that they only made 205HP with a mildly built block. What kind of setup are you running?

 

welp only got b16a3 right now just tryin to decide either to go turbo or na but i wanna here and see results mainly just woried but the fans and cooling issues plus i wanna see what i might be getting into

what r u runnin beta????

 

hmm have you ripped out your AC yet along with the one ac fan?

 

no that is the whole thing i would like to keep my ac well i could deal w/o

 

which car are you installing this on?

i have a 90 crx with a b16a1 that has a kit going on it next week. we were also worried about problems with the radiatator fan but that could always be solved with a thinner fan if need be. other than that for me there is plenty of room but i'm also using the hasport mounts. i'm also using a drag manifold, the turbo setup will be homemade but hopefully will work out well.

 

90 crx si w b16a3 w j1 tranny

 

you should be okay with the swap. what manifold were you planning on using? i'll post pics of mine this coming week when it's all done.

 

turbo ls/vtec, I have about a **** hair between the t3/t4 turbo and the radiator.

Nice setup.
What mani is that? Can you post some closeup shots of it? I'm interested in the placement of the WG runner.

Oh, yeah it's grounded wrong too.

yeah thats i nice setup what mani r u running also wat type of numbers u pushin

 

its a 91 hatch with gsr block b16 head drag gen 3 kit.
placeracing front crossmember. 92-95 civic radiator. skunk2 manifold. rc 550injectors, aem fuel rail and fuel pressure regulator, joe p manual boost controller, msd 6al, vafc, hondata 2b. thats all i can remember right now.

 

bad *** set up but qouple ??????s does the civic radiator work fine with cooling.......also what drag kit did u purchase and what all mods to i/c piping was needed to make proper fitment? please lmk..... thanx

 

with the place racing x-member and smaller radiator it frees up about 8-9 inches of room . i want that same setup so i can run a jdm 4-1 header. trust me this is the way to go

old setup(so don't knock me about the painting, i was experimenting then with the duplicote high temp )

no mount kit, welded in passenger side mount and used 90-91 integra 5spd motor/tranny mounts, i'll try to find a pic of a closer view

 

quick question for the turbo b16 folks. what compression are you guys running and how much boost (max)? also what tranny are you guys using?

 

Killer setups

 

92 B16A 10.4:1 compression
Rev Hard kit(GSR kit adapted to mine)
T3/T4 turbo, Rev Hard IC, custom pipes, Deltagate Wastegate(9PSI),Greddy BOV
10 PSI track, 9-9.5 PSI street
Best 1/4 mile 13.5@112 on 17's and paradas
Best 1/8 mile 7.9@80mph on slicks

 

intercooler piping is being redone that's why you see the filter and no i don't drive it like that. slim fan fits in perfect but if you don't have any room you can always get a push pull fan from pep boys.

 

Fairly difficult to fit it all in there, but the half-radiator helps out immensly. Also, i'm not running an air conditioner system, so that free'd up a ton of space to. Working on a new turbo setup that will eliminate much of the fitment problems, as well as maybe even allowing me to reinstall the a/c... hehe.

Stock block, stock head, Cometic headgasket, 9.2:1 compression ratio, T3 turbo w/.63 a/r.

Best time so far 12.08 @ 117mph.... more than enough mph for an 11.. heh. Bigger/badder/faster setup coming soon

So was the Cometic headgasket just to lower your c/r? How many PSI do you run normally?

 

i like the sausage bwhahaha

 

Hey, ComposiMo. Where abouts in Orlando are you. are you anywhere near UCF? I would like to come see your car some weekend if you would let me.

 

T3 what? t3/to4e?? t3/60-1?

 

Im running the same manifold as Abaz, with a 60 trim t3. Fit is pretty tight, about 1" of space between the compressor housing and the factory full length radiator. Pics soon....

And for the fan, i'm using a single fan from a hyundai accent modified to fit.
