Re: what turbo is this? rating
I'm planning for a good 230hp on a b16a stock. Nothing really. Just need to know if its good enough for that power. I got the turbo for like 50 dollars. I don't want to spend anymore money on the setup. All I need to pick up is fuel pump, and oil line kit and ecu w/ basemap tune on crome. What do you think. Just want some inputs on it.

For only paying $50, I'd say go for it.
All long as you put yourself on a good tune, I feel you'll be in over 200 HP. Of course you'll have to get it on the dyno to be certain.
I shouldn't say much about the whole ECU tuning, since I'm only running a FMU setup on my automatic Accord. I will say my plugs look the best they've ever looked and have never seen any so clean after 900 miles of around town driving.
I'm only running 8 lbs tops as of right now, but I will say I've had the turbo hit 10 PSI and pop a CEL.
How much boost are you planning on running? Stock internals? Waste gate internal or external?

Re: what turbo is this? rating
I'm planning on boosting only 7psi maybe to 10psi at the most. I have an external wastegate w/ 7bl spring.
I just want to feel a little boost. I know I'm going to get a tune. WE have a crome tuner in Concord, NC. He did my friends car ls/vtec all motor. He came out with 200 whp. Thats pretty good for stock injectors. I think he charge like 300 flat rate for all day tuning. Thats what my friend thought me. I hope everything goes well.
I just wanted to know alittle about the turbo and what it can do on my motor. Thanks for the information.

I have not had my car put on the dyno yet, because I'm more than likely going to be doing an auto to manual conversion soon. It slips a little on a 2nd to 3rd gear shift.
Everyone on here says my car's transmission will start slipping at around 200-225 WHP, so I'm estimating right in that ballpark.
My setup includes:
94 Accord EX
F22B1 Vtec engine
Garrett T25 turbo
Running about 8 lbs.
Stock injectors
12:1 FMU setup
Check Valve setup
2.5" Exhaust straight through.
Front mount intercooler
2.25" intake charge piping.
Check it out in the Build thread in this section.
