Hi All, I am currently building a new D16 motor. I want opinions on where the weak points are, as well as what kind of power I should expect. This is going to be Daily driven, might go on track a few times... I am hoping to get 250-300 hp out of this setup. This car sees some 300-400 trips highway. I don't drive it too much anymore as I take the train to work, but THE KEY IS THAT IT MUST REMAIN RELIABLE. Also, my girlfriend drives it occasionally, so it can't be too tough for her... It doesn't have PS or AC, so that's already annoying her enough... Is a DX coupe originally I am thinking of a manual boost controller SMC in the engine bay, and having it tuned for 15 PSI, but only run it at 12 psi WOULD THIS BE OK OR DO I NEED 2 TUNES? Out of the above I do not yet have only items that have???? I do not want to spend too much more in the setup as it's already cost me almost as much as a JDM ITR Swap... In the 2 years I have accumulated these parts to do everything in 1 shot, I have been running my stock DX motor... Just wondering why you choosing to use such high compression pistons for a turbo setup?? Everything else seems good so far! Baught the pistons and block together... Plus, since it will be well tuned, high comp is fine and will give me better power out of boost... Hi All, I am currently building a new D16 motor.

I'm runnign 752cc or msd 72lb injectors in my car project. No Offence, but READ MY POST BEFORE MAKING COMMENTS. I do NOT Want 400 Hp I want 250-300 HP I HAVE HONDATA S200B I HAVE A QUAIFE, I HAVE RS SLEEVES They are much thicker than GE I have 2 sleeved blocks, one by GE one by RS in my garage Either one would hold all the boost I need... I dont agree at all about the 58mm vs 62 mm throttle body! Not sure about injectors, as I need to keep a decent Idle. This is a STREET CAR. For flywheel, which one would be approve for 12 second cars? I'm thinking ACT Streetlight??? Fair enough about disagreeing in the tb each's own opinion anythign but stock. I perfer the CF alloy one myself. Fair enough about disagreeing in the tb each's own opinion anythign but stock. I perfer the CF alloy one myself. I know, I've always been about overkill... For the injectors, I've heard that I probably couldn't even pass emissions with 450s. Something about the minimum opening time and the volume of flow. Wont anything over 450 give too much fuel at idle? Also, can't I compensate in the to end by running slightly higher than stock fuel pressure? Actualyl if you have a good tuner you'll be fine in passing emmissions with any 550 injector. Running the 345cc lude injectors will have them near max duty cycle and thats not ideal for a daily driver. You can get 440cc dsm injectors for cheap or go with some new ones from my preference. As for just jacking up the fuel pressure... Get the proper engine management. Besides, good luck jacking up the fuel pressure and keeping the thing idling. If you could get away with only that, then they would have never made an fmu which is better, but still a poor choice. Stick with the hondata in the original list. You currently have 0 posts.
