boosting a d15
hey guys. i like the site its very educational.
on topic**
i have a 1990 civic dx. it has beed converted from dpfi to mpfi andd i now want to boost it.
i wanted to know if a 14b would do good. ive heard its internally gated at 12-14psi? i know that my internals wont take that will they? im going to go with a HF mani,some type of intercooler,a greddy type s bov, and im going to fab my own pipes. i just need info on the turbo and if 270cc injectors would do for that setup.. thanks

Re: boosting a d15
It's gated at 8 psi and would work nicely on your setup. 270cc injectors would work if you ran an fmu, which is is strongly advised against by pretty much everybody here on the site.
You've done a good amount of research, read the engine management faq in that forum to learn about chipped ecus and you'll be much happier.
But if you wanna run it now with the 270's+fmu, you can. It won't make quite as much power and probably won't last as long though.

if you can just get the 270's for cheaper go with those, chipping will take care of the rest. where you gettin the adapter plate from? go to

Re: boosting a d15
arent you the guy who boosted a crx with no management what so ever? stock injectors are 240cc 270cc isnt going to help much. get the 450s, no point in boosting something if its going to last 2 weeks if that. chipping your ecu wont help if your injectors max out.
