here is the story i was on the way to the track after installing a new dsbc
and a was going 100mph at 8 psi and then i hit stage two just for fun and that was set for 11 psi but it went to about 13 psi and on stock int and a greddy kit so i am going about 117mph and then boom thats all she had rod went right out the pan and put two holes in the block it is now dead if any of you got any d16y8 let me know thanks

 

thats smart. You should've stopped when u saw the 13psi.

 

we have a d16z6. practically same motor, make an offer. already has fresh ACT Extreme clutch(100miles or so, still breaking in). If you need any other turbo parts, email me at Tinker219@hotmail.com...

 

just to let ever one no that it was only at 13psi fora secend and thats all it takes
i no i shoud have let off it. but did not see it in time. only took us three and a half hours to get it all out and pistons and ever thing out and now going to get new one and build it up

Shoulda been satisfied with 9psi unless you were just planning on "raping" the motor until it blew.

 

I wish I blew my motor that way.. atleast you went out with a bang and had some fun..

yes it was a ok way to blow it there was two of my friends cars fowling me
he got to see top of my rod and a lot of block and oil pan were flying at his car at over 100 mph i was going 117 . his car was coverd with oil

 

that sucks man I'm affraid of anything above 9 lbs with a Y8

 

I should warn my friend, he's got a d16y8 seeing about 8-10psi.
Sorry to hear about the motor.

 

thats fine 8 to 10 psi is fine on good runing motor and intercoler
boost is still my friend

 

Stock greddy kit including blue box?? I hope for your sake you at least had some kind of tuning done...

 

Something else to think about is how you plan on using the motor. Sounds like you were doing high speed pulls on a highway or something. That type of "racing" (see below) is a lot tougher on the engine than drag/street racing.

that said... Maybe it was just a test and tune session. We've all done it, but there's this group of idiots in the Dallas area who are into the whole interstate racing thing. They like to do 120+ mph runs for miles. If street racing is stupid then I can't even think of a word to describe how assinine these guys are.

 

ack that sucks. dont feel bad though, I had my boost controller lines pinched between paneling and my d15b7 didn't like hitting 17psi.

 

yes i had a greddy kit with blue box and a fmu and it was runing good at 8 to 10psi
on the street and stripe it was the 13 to 14 psi that is not good

 

No that is not good enough for 10psi at all you would have needed bigger injectors.. The reason you engine blew was a lack of tuning. If it was tuned a spike to 13psi would be alright I figure was probably detonating the moment you went past 8psi. <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by hondaboy1999 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">yes i had a greddy kit with blue box and a fmu and it was runing good at 8 to 10psi

opps sorry

 

The engine didn't just die, you killed it. I boosted my D16Y8 up to 12psi for over a year (mind you I boosted it with 85k miles) on both the AFC hack and Hondata,never had a single problem with the motor. Hell, 122k miles later and it's still running 100%..

 

i do have 310 injectors and i was going 117mph at 5000 rpm at 13 to 14 psi the rods cant take that it is not a lack of tuning it was too much boost
and yes it was my fault i did kill it o well time to build it up
