I've posted this on various forums, just seeing what different people's input is. I've got 180k on the clock, but am getting ready to do a full tune up with new gaskets, various oil seals, and a new OEM clutch. I haven't done a compression test yet, but if the cylinders are past 5%ish of each other, that answers my question . I'm just looking for a little more power for scooting around town. Won't be going to the track, the most extreme situation would be some highway driving. Would a S-AFC be ok for me to use with my applicaton? What's the max boost that I should not go past? I know the D15 has weaker internals than the D16, so I would imagine 3-5psi max? Everything will be stock except for an exhaust and maybe a Skunk 2 cam gear.

 

Do a compression test and if the numbers are within spec boost it up.Run 6-8psi on a smaller turbo and dont use the SAFC instead get your/a chipped ecu and some DSM 450CC injectors.

 

Make sure you get a pretty good headgasket because d15s are know to blow them when boosted, and like he said, i would NOT push more than 8 psi.

 

I made a mistake, I have a D15B2 not a D15A2. My motor has only the two fuel injectors on top. Would an OEM honda headgasket be ok? I don't think I would run more than 5psi. I looked into chipping my ECU, but it is very confusing to me. How exactly is my ecu chipped and how do I run a program like TurboEdit, chrome, or uber?

 

You need to do a MPFI swap first.Are you in North America or Europe?What year and car?

 

Def do the MPFI swap first

 

Yeah i'm in the good ole US of A. I'm drivin a '88 DX hatch 5 speed

 

You will need a PM6 ecu might as well get a chipped one nowhttp://www.-------------/products.php?page=prod_cover complete MPFI[88-91SI] intake manifold along with resistor box[silver thing on shock tower] and SI distributor.Then perform the swap as per instructions.[url][https://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/...4489.0/url]STD hatches are the ---- that thing must be borderline on 2000lbs

 

My old EF hatch. MPFI with a t25 turboh
