Questions on trubo my d16.

[Schlingding23]

Im thinking about getting edelbrock turbo kit, boost controller, upgraded spark plugs, and exhaust. But is there anything else i should get for my car which im about to turbo?

 

[00civicsiturbo]

injectors, fuel pump, clutch, wires... search my friend

 

[bizoneoeh]

what does the kit come with?



and you can't forget about the tune.

Some people may say you dont need it but id suggest a better head gasket say like one from Cometic and arp rod bolts and head studs

Depends on how much boost you plan on running, and the motor. On a d esries you can run 6-8 lbs stock, on a b series you can run 8-10 lbs. Anything over 8 lbs i would get some injectors, dsm injectors would work fine. You only need to start upgrading other if you plan on runnin over 10 lbs

a big turbo sticker for the rear.

lol i plan on doin the same to my z6, after searching, you realize its a short list:
first get a compression and leak down test. then add a cosmetic head gasket, arp head studs and bolts, t25 turbo @ 8 psi, blow off valve, front mount inter cooler,IC piping, bigger fuel pump, 370cc-450cc fuel injectors, upgraded air intake, a programmable or chipped ecu, 2.5" downpipe and better exhaust, steel oil lines, tap you oil pan, get a really really good tune, dyno if possible, find religion and pray that you dont blow your s**t. at least this is my list.

ive been planning

Injectors if the kit doesn't come with it, hondata s300 is nice, or a socketed ecu tuned on ectune, neptune, maybe crome pro. I think the edelbrock kit might come with some sort of engine management though.

wow....word of advise....dont go by psi....

stock d series rods can handle around 220-250whp...now depending on what turbo, it can be between 6-14psi.....

on a b series motor....stock rods can handle around 300whp....which again depending on the turbo can be around 8-18psi....

 

[ragedeep]

damn 200 whp? is that pushing it or is that in the safety regions? i know it all depends on the tune but im just wondering

 

[s_crowley 17]

there are plenty of single cams out there that are pushing 250 or at that point.. stock

200 is a good tune for a single cam..

damn not bad, man i cant lie, before you are completly sure your going to turbo you car, do as much research as you can, because even with a kit, you still need other parts, well apparently...
