How bad would this be for temporary?
After driving my 89 hatch for a little while with just a bone stock b16a in it, I decided it def. needs a little more get-up and go to it. What I'm thinking of doing is using my old 14b turbo with a custom (read homemade ;) ) log manifold and holding the stock wastegate open a bit to lag the turbo so it doesn't spool up until at least after 3700 rpm. Now I'm only looking for about a 50 hp jump, and I know it's def. a way too small turbo, but for now I've run out of money and this is what I still have to work with. My biggest concern is my ecu...I have a pr3 chipped with BRE that was tuned for a b16/sc61 with dsm 450's up to about 11psi. I know it's going to run dog ---- rich, but how bad would it be to run it with that tune (I have a link to the actual basemap if anyone has BRE and wants to check it out) and scale some fuel out with my vafc until I get some dough scraped together to get it back to the dyno for tuning? And more importantly, how bad would it ---- up my timing, seeing that it would be scaled back under boost? Max this motor is going to see is 7psi out of this undersized snail, just enough to give me a little bump for traffic in the morning and night, but I would like to see the motor last more than a couple weeks with this shitty setup :-[
