hey im lookin to turbo my B18C, i wanted to know if the Rev-hard stage2C was good, are they reliable? is it worth it or should i just go custom turbo kit and build it all myself? im looking to use the T3/T4 turbo do you guys recomend any other turbos that can hold around 2bar with not a lot of bitch *** lag?

Rev hard is fine, the reliability depends on how well you do the installation.
Custom kit is fine, do some research and pick out high quality parts.

2bar = 29.0076 psi
I wouldn't worry about getting a turbo that can handle that much boost, i'd worry about your engine being able to handle it.

For that much boost, in my opinion don't stick with a honda, get a gsx/gst eclipse, 240sx with sr20, or supra with a 2jz-gte.

Most people on h-t (which know a hell of a lot more than I do) only boost 5.5-12psi on stock internals. (there are the crazy guys who do like 15psi however).

 

2 bar of boost?!? That is insane. You can do it, but it isn't worth it on the street, first of all, what are your goals? Why are you going turbo, what do you want to do? Race professionally in Drag? Do you road race? AutoX? Straight line only?

 

something is not right here u plan on runing almost 30 psi and you are here asking us if a revhard kit is reliable . If you plan on makign that much power then uhh u need to go with a custom kit, but why would u want to run that much boost on the street. Please give us more details of what u want to do. on a b18c1 i wouldnt push it past 8-9 psi on a basic fuel setup

 

its not gonna be on street, i rarly drive it only to a race and back, im asking high *** boost because i plan to build my motor with the highest quality stuff i was just wondering if it would hold up to the massive pressure its producing, i hear from some poepl that they crack because they are running too much boost i wanna know if thats true, i know i should build my own turbo kit i was just wanting to know if the #'s they say on there site are true, because i love the T3/T4 turbo for some reason? this is gonna be all done at once so what stuff should i look twards (as in parts) i have all my internals already planned out, i was planning on a custom KIWI style turbo header, Turbonetics T3/TD04E, custom I/C pipes, i want a spearco intercooler but i know there is something better than that, custom section welded 3" downpipe/ exhaust system, Hondata stage 3 or 4 with boost, HKS SS bov, Venom IM, aem high volume fuel rail/reg/pump, and a NOS I/C spray kit. what other I/C's are better then spearco? i want air/air intercooler no water. what other things do you guys suggest? and yes i know its almost 30psi but i was just wondering if that turbo will hold up to that, im gonna be running around 15-20psi.

 

personally i would look towards a full-race manifold and a 60-1 turbo to help with the traction

but damn you must have some deep pockets

but damn you must have some deep pockets</TD></TR></TABLE> i have sponcers that are gonna help me A LOT, i know i cant afford all of that **** by myself, full race mani? like what, i know that the Venom plenum is HUGE and it not only sucks up little kids but big kids as well lol, i know they have sick *** flow goin though that thing, like what kinda of a race mani are you talking about have pics of something similar to what your talking about or discribe it?

 

exhaust manifold i ment

http://www.full-race.com
quality equal length manifolds for a good price

also check out the STR intake manifold

Ive been tryin to buy it off him but he is a bitch and doesnt wanna sell it if they still make them ill buy a new one but i dont think they are?

 

yeah go with a full race manifold, presicion sc61, xs intercooler, good standalone, not sure what else, but a t3/t04e is only good to around 350 whp or so, you will need something bigger. Why not tlak to matormatrx, maybe he can give you more helpful info.

 

what other turbo's are like the T3/T4 that can handle around 500+whp? i know that on the rev hard site it says the turbo is good untill 450hp??? is this not true? is there a good hybrid turbo that will handle that much who? i dont like lagg but i could always use the bottle

 

also who makes realy good air/air intercoolers? Spearco and XS i know any others?

 

the revhard kit will be as reliable as you make it. With 30 psi however, you will have a difficult time keeping your motor together with that kit's fuel system.

If you build the turbo system right you will not need any nitrous at all to spool the turbo, and it will be capable of putting down about 600whp. The turbo in the revhard kit will not be able to do that. Usually, the only way to make this power is to go custom, however there are some other options now.

 

ditto for the full-race kit.....2bar.....lot of bottom end work should be on your christmas list....don't forget some of the laughing gas

 

just curious how did you get sponsored since it sounds like your not really technical? no offense intended

 

To me I don't think your to sure of what your talking about! 2bar, And asking is rev-hard reliable?

I'm guessing it's a stock motor too .
You haven't said anything about fuel managment,

Sounds like your signature points at you!

I would invest in doing a little more research and take smaller steps.

 

did you read the hondata stage 4 w/ boost that takes care of my fuel, and i have a sponcer for my X-hatch it was all motor and most of his cars that he works with are all motor he realy wants a turbo car and so do I im not realy good with being technical over the internet its easier for me to talk in person im a lot more tech then you think as for the your sig looks like its for me you should eat my pants my motor is not stock at all, block built by Eagle eagle rods, pistons, crank, renforced block, top end- sleeve spacers, skunk2 stage 3 turbo cams (not out for the public yet) skunk2 valves, retainers, springs. all with compression of 7:1 all i need is Hondata stage4 w/ Boost, and my turbo kit that i have yet to build the only reason i asked if the revhard stage2C was reliable, because i needed to know if that #'s that they give on there site were true and that if there turbo's cracked at all with high pressure.

 

Well now I see it's not stock your sounding a little better, but it still is a wierd question, I don't think you want a rev-hard kit.....also....7:1 compression .

Maybe it's me. I just don't understand.

 

: &lt;stands for ratio in math my compression is 7 to 1 ratio

I know that **** I'm talking about the actually numbers. Your horsepower is going to be ****! Maybe when you boost 60psi.

 

the compression wont be that big of a deal, yeah it wouldnt hurt to have higher compression, but you will still make plenty of power. The motor will live very very long like this.

out of curiosity tho, what is this

also do yourself a favor and run GSR cams, dont run the skunk2
