I've been thinking about throwing a turbo on my daily driver. I thought I would make a thread so people could post and discuss their turbo set up specs, plans, achievements, failures, and links of reference. I'm hoping we can utilize the extreme knowledge of successful beyond builders, such as gpomped, egmike, dirtysohc and many others.

Budget builds are so cool the whole idea is to learn as you go. D series are cheap and plentiful how can you go wrong.


I've been slowly collecting parts:
I'll I really want is 150-160 reliable hp to the wheels

93EG Civic
D15B/ D16Z6/D16Y8
Garrett turbo from a SAAB
HF manifold
Chipped P28 ECU
still need FMIC
H22 injectors with resistor box

djfob and ^skyline^ are also part of the d-series turbo ninja crew. from what i've seen around here, the z6 and y8 seem to be the most succesful motors for turbo d-series. you may want to upgrade headstuds but you might be able to get away with the stock bolts if you only have 150whp.

I'd upgrade to arps for sure, stock headbolts don't hold up for very long. Might as well save the headache and not risk the head warping from overheating. The best thing you can do is not cheap out, this was my biggest mistake or you'll just end up spending more money.

BUddy of mine, Shane, just picked up his intercooler for his D series turbo setup, now he is awaiting his cars to get back from the shop and we will be hookin it up and sending it out for tune.

I don't know what DelSol's have as engines *muscle car guy not import* but if they are D aswell, then delsol_rockstar also just picked up his Turbo setup and is getting it installed within 2 weeks.

Did You put your Headstuds in yet ? lol

Here is my set up, I am on my 3rd turbo. First was a IHI off a probe, then 50 trim t3 and now T3/T4. If I were to do it again I would have started off with t3/t4 just to save on the wrench time.

All were done on toma's Mustang Dyno
IHI I made 135whp at 5.5 psi
T3 50 Trim I made 205 Whp 173tq@11psi
T3/T4 I made 230Whp 179tq@11psi (turbo had .63ar turbine then I have .48 now)

Engine is D16z6 100% Stock internals, ARP headstuds
S20 JDM D15b Tranny with OEM LSD
Garrett 57 Trim TO4E .50 cold .48 hot
450cc DSM injectors
Walbro 255 LPH Intank Pump & B&M FPR
Uberdata 1.7 Tuned using TE 2.oA Wideband
SSAutoCrap Equal length Mani
2.5 " DP
3" Exhaust
Tial knock off 35mm Wastegate
Custom IC, made from 1/3 of Power stroke IC core
Blitz SS BOV
Skunk 2 Intake Mani
Custom Full Race Style Traction Bars

Engine Bay Pic (http://www3.telus.net/turbofreak/EG%20CIVIC/EG15.jpg)

Best track time is in my sig... my 60ft times were 2.35ish and was getting alot of wheel hop on launch, I Had traction bars set up wrong.

I haven been turbocharged for over 2.5 years on the same motor, and went thru two turbo different setups.

D16Y8 motor

Hondata 2b
Comectic HP headgasket
Arp head studs
Tial wastegate
Stock internals
440 cc RC injectors
50 trim T3 at 9 psi - Old setup Made 198 WHP on a mustang dyno
60 trim T3 at 11 psi - New made 215 Whp on a dynojet this spring.

Best time was 14.2 at 100.7 mph

Hoping for better numbers once a new block is dropped in. since the current one has seen over 60 thousand km boosted and is daily driven.

So your old setup with a smaller turbo at less boost made more power :confused:

This one is done wet with a teaspoon of oil

i'm on my 3rd turbo as well (2 dodge turbos and now a garret T3) :) (wrench time is right mike),
i'm on my 2nd complete setup and i'm working on my third right now (jdm d16)

arp head studs are a must say in your setups. otherwise you will have detailed knowledge on headgaskets :)
my compression looks a lot like Rolands so i've ben proactive with my new block and getting ready for the swap out. its so nice working on a fresh block out of the car.

I cant believe i worked on this thing while i drove it. sooo much better having a worry free second car when doing projects like this.
anyways, on to the pics.

Hey was just wondering what else you need to sustain a D16 out of a 96 civic. I am getting a full turbo kit including everything and a n intercooler. What other parts do i need to ensure my engine will run well and reliable? It's a T3/T4 turbo kit

08-28-2005, 01:59 AM
headstuds, injectors, good fuel management.

snatch
08-28-2005, 06:00 PM
What is included with good fuel management? Is that like fuel pump? What about like a new fuel rail. Is an upgraded clutch important? When is it a good idea to upgrade internals like the pistons, rods, camshafts, etc?

He means like a upgraded ECU or standalone system that manages the way the fuel is delivered to the engine and when etc. Upgraded fuel injectors and all that as well.

I run a stock fuel pump and rail with my dsm 450s. A stock clutch will handle about 140-150 whp before it'll start slipping and for internals anything over 220-230 whp. At the hp lever it's pushing it though and is all dependent on how well your car is tune'd.

Bigger injectors, hondata or uberdata is what you will need good for like said before 200-230 hp tuned properly.
Also get a new clutch i fried a brand new stock replacement one REAL quick and had to upgrade.

Uberdata is the same unless you get the moates ostrich which then you can tune on the fly. Kinda cool if you're tuning all the time but pricey.

"- TuroEDIT 2.0 released for the New Year! Dave's new boost code is a hit. Dual Maps, smooth boost transision. New Serial interpolation routine for datalogging and RTP will be a reality! Check out the features section of the ROM to see all the hot new thigns available for 2.0"

I guess they do now, I hadn't really followed it. I'm pretty sure the older versions, which I had didnt though.

Yours was probably just set to a single map as default, 2.0 is old anyways haha and i was just bugging ya. I think the newest one is like 2.5.2 and don't go by the TE site cause it never gets updated. PGM-FI.org is where all the new shit is located.

I do recomend using uberdata if possible.:thumbsup:

Looking good mike!
What is the stock Dseries block good to for power. With new rods and pistons how much power do you thing you will be able to put down??

Whats would be the first thing to blow on the stock motor besides the head gasket???

not sure what it is good to..... my goal is around 325whp, I'd say the sleeves would be one of the first things to go, but i'd be more worried about that if I was trying to make 400whp.....

So with just rods and pistons 300WHP should be fairly safe??? That would be a worthy build to put time into in my eyes. Keep us updated on your setup. What did the rods + pistons run you with machine shop cost on the block?

yeah 300whp is a safe goal..... Machine shop was 250 to deck and bore the block and I think the head was around 50 bucks to mill ... so 300. Rods were 275US and pistons were 450US, and then bearings and gaskets & seals add 300-350.

I contiplated doing the build and going with a B18 swap, but I calculated a swap to be about 1000-1200 more, by the time u add in new clutch and turbo manifold & dp and all the little things to get it running.

what do you think of this setup for my D15b7..

1) 2G DSM intercooler
2) 14B 1st Gen talon Turbo
3) 1st Gen talon 450CC injectors
4) 1st Gen talon Blowoff
5) Hx manifold with adaptor plate


My concern is my rods that are weadk in the b7....im planning on running about 7 psi, will my rods and clutch be okay?

^SkylinE^
10-15-2005, 10:52 PM
Clutch will probably go for sure but with a good tune you should be safe with the rods?:dunno:

nope, they'll both blow up within 100 km

what did you do when you encountered this problem?

egmike
10-16-2005, 02:50 PM
your clutch will probly go not long after you get the turbo on, if you tune it properly the rods will be fine if ur making less than 190-200whp....
