I've been told that even with the new pistons, rods, and sleeves, the D16 would still only be able to handle about 15psi consistently and stay safe and reliable. Is that true?...or can it take more boost safely? Also, I've heard that the TD-04H turbo in the Greddy kit maxes out at about 15psi. Is this true? If both are true, I guess everything's fine since they coincide. I'm hoping this setup puts down about 250-260WHP. Thanks.

 

the reason you can only go up to 15psi is that @ 15psi you block itself becomes the weak point, 250whp sounds about right

 

HP number may be right but that is totally wrong with a sleeved block as d16's have put out well over 350 WHP (net) - see Jason Whitfield car that ran 10.21 @ 141 mph...

 

sleeved block you are correct..I was refering to a stock block, I believe that is where the misinformation started

 

Thanks guys for the responses. I did list in my above mods the new sleeves for the block. Still, I've heard that that setup would still only hold about 15psi. I think the D16's putting down 300+whp also have their decks welded closed so they no longer have the open-deck design weakness.

 

It'll hold over 15psi...I wouldn't go boosting 20psi at every stop light though

 

Thats about what I have heard also.. Around 15 - 16 lbs of boost.
