nebody else got ne more replys??? i know the t3t4 is good for my engine but i also know it cost atleast 250 $ i already have a ihi rh5b and am just wondering if i could use it temperally or maybe permenantly i guess is that it should spool up super quick on my engine. well plz give more ideas people i would really apreciate it

Re:t3 vs ihi rh5b
 

I have the IHI off of a Mazda on my d16 and it's about dead at my redline. SO, I would think that it would be temporary if anything but as I have never seen it on a B18C I wouldn't know for sure. My 2 cents.

ihi rhb5...too small for a B18C1.
Will die out pretty quick.
Even a bigger T3 Ar 42/48 is too small for the B18C1

Re:t3 vs ihi rh5b
 

^^^t3/t4 is the way to go.

what all do yall think i need for safe boosting at 12 psi this is going to be a daily driver... and do u think 12 psi , lsd, slicks, wheelie bar, and weight reduction will get me a 10 in a quater??? thx plz get back soon

Re:t3 vs ihi rh5b
 

uhmmm depends...
Build internals with high compression and ported head etc valve job, new springs and turbo cam and a standalone will let you hit 10 sec on 12 psi.
Some race only cars have high comp with lower boost.

I cant believe you are even thinking of putting an IHI on a GSR!!???!!! :-X That ---- will loss power by the time vtec kicks in!! :-\ If i were you i would save up for a T3T4 or a big ass T3 with like a .60 trim..... but an IHI....what the hell are you thinking..... :o
