Anything over 7psi on d16 stock rods is pushing it.

Basically on race gas and great tuning you might get away with it a few times at the track. This would NOT be a reliable set up.

I also think you severly underestimate the skills as a tuner required. This isn't like adding boost to a FI car.



im sorry but this is bull. i know at least 4 people in the nw area running 8-10 psi on their stock d16 (z6 and y8), and have been for 6+ months. im planning on running 8 psi on my y8 and if you just make sure everything is in good working order you shouldnt have any problems. and its not that hard of a setup. 4-5k is more and enough to boost a d series, my whole setup is going to run less than a grand when finished, including swapping the y8 into my crx.
nice thing about boosting a d series with that kind of income is that if it blows, you're only looking at 200-500$ for a new motor, so you can go through three or 4 d's before you get to the cost of a type -r swap. just my two cents.


or and HMT owz joo

Ok now some one asked a simple question to start this thread off.....I don't see why some one feels the need to bring in idiots from all over North American to this site who are only here to argue and post stupid ----. That's just stupid.

i was just giving and honest opinion, i feel this guy should boost a d series and do it himself, its alot funner and cheaper in the long run, if he does it right it should cost him about $1500 total. no need to get ----.

hmt guys were offended by the blasphemous turbo myths, so they had to represent.

and plus we shoulnt be saturating the internet with false infaormation, now should we?
