So i have a B16a2 and i want to boost it but i have a problem

[Honda_Racing]

ok so my b16a2 compression rate is a 1 to 12 and to me that sounds pretty f**king high to be throwing any boost application on to.
well my main question is if i boost this car will i have to lower the compression rate?
and which is better a turbo or a supercharger?
and which one is the best kit for my car?

Nice but does anyone know how to install the skunk2 manifold on to a B16A2 i just got one for my ride but i don't know how to install it i want to do it my self but i need help can anyone help me out????

my friend did his skunk 2 intake mani on his h22 on his ek hatch, and that s**t was huge, what we had to do is bash in the firewall to make it fit lol

It's pretty much the same procedure as stated in the how/to on here for the GSR.

way to thread jack. LOL Just pay attention to how you take the stock mani off, and you will probably plug a few of the holes up because you will not need them hooked up to hoses. If you search, you will find.

To answer your ?'s. A lower compression would definitely be better. IMO a snail is the way to go. As for kits, you can't go wrong with a peakboost or fullrace kits. Even a Revhard will be good. If you get a revhard, I would buy a ramhorn mani though, so maybe stay with peak or full race. Good luck.

boost it

you dont need to lower compression. as long as you have a good tune, and run good gas, your high compression will put out more power when turbo, you just need to make sure your tune is good.

oh ok i always thought if the compression was to high i would blow a piston but any one got any good cheep turbo links all i need is the pipes, intercooler, tubro, and manifold i got the injectors with are 350cc and i got an ecu hondata s300

BOOSTED LOW COMP PISTONS piece together ur own kit n ur good or u can go here for the peak boost kit [url]http://cheapturbo.stores.yahoo.net/25pa.html[/URL] and for the intake mani lik the dude said b4 jus pay attention the how u take the stock one of its jus the reverse of that in a way

 

[tunerkid7]

question

Do you guys think it would be safe to urbo my car its a 00 civic si and it has 120,000 miles on it.

do a compression and leak down test. if the numbers look good then yes its okay. if not then fix the problem and then boost it
