How much boost can you run on 9.1:1 pistons.. assuming the rods and everything else are replaced with stronger units? What about 8.1:1? How much horsepower, round figure obviously, with a turbo running a given psi, with cams, upgraded fuel... etc etc etc.

 

Vague enough...!?

Try here: https://honda-tech.com/zeroforum?id=16

 

let me take a wack at this one, assuming i have no idea what engine this is going in, and your going to replace everything, and slap a FATTY turbo on it, tune it. i would say a good 500-700 WHP

 

lol sry, its would be a B16, with a t3/4

 

Anywhere from 200-500. Too many variables.

 

seriously dude...more specifics, then people can start throwing down some real numbers, maybe youll find a similar set up that you would like if u used the search function, and check their dyno plots

ok n00b...first of all, what kind of head are you using? what block are you planning to use? DOHC or SOHC? vague questions = no detailed answer

 

you were jumping the gun on THAT one bro. you made a pretty noob post right there. if u would have taken the time to read the rest of the posts, you would have seen that he is using a b16, and lets just assume its the PR3 head.

Tell us more about your setup if u can.

 

on pump gas, you will find your limits in the ~300-400 whp range.

On race gas, assuming other variables are ok, 500+ is definately possible, but it's a matter not of the compression, but of the series of comprimises you choose :-)

list more details for a more detailed answer.
