something i was wondering...??
 

why is it that the 14b on a stock eclipse halls ass at say 14psi and holds boost all the way til redline but if it put that same turbo on my LS which is a 1.8 compared to the 2.0 it spools fast as ---- and dies out in the higher rpm and higher gears? can anyone explain?

Hey thats a good question.. I had the same problem with my integra too. it had a t3 turbo.

because your LS is higher compression compared to the shitty DSM, not to mention the head probly out flows the DSM by a factor of 1 million ;)

yeah, i believe it mostly has to do with how good the honda heads flow. that little wheel in the turbo can't keep up ;) kind of like running too fast and then you can't keep up and you fall on your face :-X

yea i remember there`s some guy who owns a MR2, made a post about Why do we Honda ppl think we needs that`s BIG of a turbo to make power. and that a MR2 makes XXX horse with the stock CT26 and such.
