How do I get to 15 psi?
I want to be able to adjust my boost level in my project car anywhere between 7-15 psi, depending on driving conditions (regular driving/race)...
The car has a built d16 non-vtec. The engine builder has assured me it can take 20-25 lbs of boost, and I trust him. The car is a 93 civic dx. I really just want to know what kind of hardware and electronics you guys would recommend so I don't break the bank, yet I am running safe. Here are the "for sure" items, I'm looking for suggestions on everything else. Turbo: Garret T3 "super60" with .48 a/r... or should I go .63? I'm taking suggestions on an intercooler (preferably used) Injectors? 450cc or 550cc? 2bar map sensor, right? Safc? (standalone looks too expensive) turbo timer? internal or external wastegate? does it make a difference? high flow fuel pump? This isn't engine related, but LSD? has anyone tried a Phantom Grip? Positive/negative feedback? I already have an idea of all this, i'm just interested in what other people may be using/or would recommend. Thanks for ANY info. |

Get the A/R .63 more flow more top end.
get 550cc injectors. I you're going to a 2 bar map you need a standalone, or wait for the Ghettodyne with boost support.s-afc...with the hack you can get to 10-11 psi max, don't know if it works with a 2bar map, I don't think so. You need to research on that. doesn't matter what wastegate and if you're running 15 psi you definatly need a better fuel pump. go with a real LSD, there is a post on the forum about it. Phantom grip sux .. is my conclusion right now I'm going to use a Fuel control trailorpark budget hack with chipped ecu with ghettodyne. 450cc injectors running 9.somtin' psi till I get a CEL. stock fuel pump with a KKK-26 turbo and audi external wastegate. |

Oh and get a boost controller to boost higher than the stock wastegate setting's

Re:How do I get to 15 psi?
my buddy has a quaife lsd and he loves it. Its pretty koo he can kinda drift the rearend around.. or maybe thats because he stripped his rearbumber and a bunch of other structural stuff off the back ... haha i just hope he dosent get in an accident.
go with the .63 .. lag? so what, top end is where its at. get a spearco intercooler, imho the used junkyard ones are selling for too much money, unless u get a used starion for <100 you paid too much. you need a standalone for the map reasons and a safc just isnt reliable enuf for that powerful of a setup... ie BOOM! that engine better be posted/sleeved or something to take that kind of boost. |
