Default D16z6 turbo question and introduction

First i'd like to say hello to the HMT community ive been trolling this forum getting some good information on my lil Vtak machine lol. I am not very familiar with hond's but always into learning. So anyway enough about that my questions are simple for the most part and i did some searching on it and really just need some opinion.


1.) My setup on my crx is to4e with 3.5 dp, 550cc injectors and hondata s100 w/boost i want to see atleast 230HP out of this setup is that possible and still reliable for daily driving.

2.) If you notice in my first post i didnt mention a exhaust setup and i have been looking into the kteller 2.5 exhaust system "reason being is i want to weld up my own exhaust" how many folks out there runs this system and how do you like it.

3.) also im running a Apexi AVCR for boost controll and monitoring my PSI "i hate gauges in my cabin" any advice for using this type of e-boost controller with a t04e


My lil honda machine is a 90 CRX hf with d16z6 swap, and the other machine i drive is in my sig, thanks in advance.

230 is pushing it on stock internals. I hope you can tune really good.

i thought as much what would be a reasonable number and PSI according to what i found through the search engine 12PSI on a stock block is ok for a DD. Adnd i some my buddies who do tuning work for Hondata tuning her from what ive seen they do some good tuning and thanks for the response.

1. Your goal is reasonable. Lots of people have gotten around those numbers on the z6. As far as reliability, the main concerns are the tiny stock rods, and ringland failure. With a GOOD tune, both can be avoided. Detonation will destroy both. To help avoid this, I would personally suggest water/methanol injection as it raises your effective octane to around 110 if I recall correctly, maybe even higher, but it would not be totally necessary. and a 3.5in downpipe is not really necessary on that setup, especially if its entering a 2.5in exhaust. 2.5 or 3in downpipe would be plenty.

2. The kteller exhaust is a nice deal, especially the weld it up yourself package. I went with the one that lacks a muffler but comes w/hangers already on that just slipfits together as i lack a welder myself. It fit very well and was of good quality. And 2.5in exhaust is plenty for the horsepower goals (and magnaflow mufflers sound really good)

3. I have no advice concerning the avcr, as i've never used one, but using on the t04e is no different than using it on any other turbo. Follow the manufacturers instructions to install it.

Check out the projects portion of this website, it has a lot of builds on different cars and engines
