LS/VTEC turbo

[bluebeast]

I'm planing to turbo ls/vtec and I was just wandering how much will the stock sleves hold up.

need more info

kthxbye

dont push more than 250 hp and keep revs under 7200 rpms, have a good tune and your block will hold strong. what head did you put on the bottom end?

 

[MasterShake]

how much psi?

 

[stealthy]

250hp on a good tune, 300 on a REALLY good tune.

 

[Shiznit]

how much psi?

whatever psi takes him to 250 hp

 

[stealthy]

how much psi?

167.674 psi squared x 1.008 rounded to the nearest 10th

 

[91SiVTEC]

what are you expecting to run in the 1/4?

 

[Shiznit]

167.674 psi squared x 1.008 rounded to the nearest 10th

85018.5 psi

okay seriously, no more nonsense

it depends on the size of the turbo.

it's not fully built yet, I got srp piston and conecting rods and gsr crank and going to have a crank girdle too. I wood like to push around 300 whp.

300 hp is the limit, you shouldnt do more than that on stock sleeves. so if it were me i would push 250-275 hp. which is what i intend to do on my b16 until i can get it sleeved

 

[TiiM iiS l3eAsT]

agreed...i wouldnt push more than 10 psi which is prolly around 225 hp on my stock zc....300 might be fine on urs with a really good tune....i would watch it though....just only push around 250 i wouldnt push ur s**t to hard...specially if u dont want to buy i new motor....

with a t3/04e .50 at 12psi i made 260whp on a mustang dyno. drove it everday except in the winter for over a year on a stock block and it was fine. now i have pistons/rods/headstuds with stock sleeves and have had it up to 18psi with no problems. ive been running 15 for the past 2 months but i havnt had it dynod yet to see how much power its at

stock sleeves will easily go over 300hp seen it done many times at this level tuning is critical since your starting to be on thin ice and any hint of detonation at those hp and boost levels will be very bad.
