Default Shes boosted.. my 91 EF Hatch

Heres the specs:

stock (for now) d15b2
garrett t25
HF ported mani
custom adapter plate
Tyrus 5" FMIC
OBD0 Turboedit
JDM Old school HKS "Super blow off valve"
2.5" Charge piping
Stealthmode oil kit
Si Tranny
Exedy Clutch
MPFI Conversion
DSM 450cc injectors

Very near future:

downpipe will be done
resistor box instead of in-line resistors
full 2.5" exhaust
Greddy Type-S BOV
Wideband o2, possibly the zeitronix model.. still researching.. open to any ideas!


Anyway, i got the work done the other night and have driven it short distances a time or two to see how it runs.. very rich right now until i get my wideband. i am running 8psi with stock t25 internal wastegate. the rad fan has been wired with a switch. the hot side piping is going to be re-done, i had to rig it to get it working.. i had originally planned on cutting through the metal to fit it but decided against it..

open to any ideas/suggestions/criticism (dont be to harsh)

anyway, heres the goods!

looks just like when I first got my turbo, the black plumbing connectors(get rid of them) I like the setup, what size down pipe are you putting?

looks sweet!!@! good luck with it, also..your engine bay is going to look a mess soon without that DP my friend ran a HF manifold and adapter plate with a 13g turbo on his del sol, 8 psi also, felt real strong compared to what it used to be. im sure once you get that DP made and put on that 2.5 exhaust ur talking about, it will haul *** in a light chasis like that

Be careful even at 8psi, that B2 has some weak rods. Also I wouldn't drive it with no DP like that, hack anything to aim it away from the car but like that is asking for trouble.

I have FULL engine/fuel management.

im not driving it any until i get a downpipe on it. i had drove it a time or two to make sure it was good. im having to wait for my exhaust flange plate to get here from RRE before i can have the exhaust done. Thanks for the comments!

good job

looks alot like my setup

anyways, yes fabricate a downpipe ASAP
u going to melt something and kill the motor soon with sucking that nasty crap back into the intake


anyways, i like the spot for the water overflow ( i did the same)

good luck, and enjoy it while the B2 lasts.... they dont hold too long........ ( u spun a bearing with 130whp only)

Hows it pull for a B2?

I've always wondered. I've been planning on junkyard boosting mine for about a year now, but my CRX takes priority.

thanks, turboedit seems to work pretty good. just count on buying a wideband or finding a friend with one to get it working correctly!
