Default How strong is D16a6 internals?

Compare to d16y8 and d16z6 when it comes to boost? Also, how many psi can it hold with stock d16a6?

Compare? their is hardly a diffrence..

D16y8/z6 have same size rods, both use cast pistons, same RS for Crank. Neither has an advantage over the other one. The Z6 supposivly has a better flowing head, but the Y8 has a better flowing intake manifold. OBD1 Is a bit easier to work with when boosting, but OBD2 isnt that hard either..

The Y8 will probably have a bit less miles since it was used in later cars, But thats about it.

The A6 also has the same RS ratio, same size rods, and cast pistons. D-series are all pretty close to the same, honda didnt make very many big changes with them.

If your asking how much HP? I wouldnt be ------- with anything over 230hp.. We have a member on the board that has broke all rules with D-series rods and was making like over 300hp to the wheels on a stock D-series bottom end, but he did crank it up and ended up blowing the ---- out of it.

Thanks for all the info. LOL, no i will not be making 230hp to the wheels. I mean 180 to the wheels is all good to me.
