-----------------------^
where is all this money coming from?? do you have this setup already?

 

Well first of all I got the dc's for 40 bucks so why not and I need something to run on it to break it in.

Have you priced all that? I'm also interested in a veerrrry similar setup. Right now I'm having 2k/mo after bills.. so I'm trying to have my d16 running 13s before january. we'll see.

 

I just make good money where I work and have been saving for a while to make my dreams a reality. But I've also learned that taking your time is the best rule any of us could follow. I've been doing research for this build for at least 6-8 months. I felt there aren't enough d- series ninjas in the game.

 

I'll get a price on it for ya I need to tally it all up myself as well

 

that is damn near the same build we jsut did in my friends car, but we went with .5m oversized bore to leave thicker sleeves(more room to overbore when we blow something).

 

i always thought on a d series a 1.8 is kinda 2 big, becuase the walls won't be as thick and can't take so much boost as like a 1.6 liter, but it has been done before, so good luck with that, 1.8 liter d series is hot

 

that's what I thought but with good head bolts and a good headgasket this should not be a problem. And I'm not gonna go crazy with boost if I do.

 

bump

why build that engine with that compression if you were not going turbo, why not higher? looking for a happy medium? that engine, like someone said before, is just begging for BOOST!
