B16 Turbo(Q)

[94EJ1OwnS]

is a b16 motor good to boost on stock internals? really want to boost it but if its going to make my motor go bad quicker then i keep it N/A, but i heard b16 motors are good to boost , as long you get a good tune and run under 9psi , i know a Ls block is good for boost but really dont feel like going threw that process . So is it possible to make my b16 can handle boost without going bad on me? dont care about the hp i make , as long i make it sneeze lol , and the motor doesnt go bad . .

Did a compression check, compression # are good , No Leaks!

b16 are good on boost as long as u run low boost and dony beat on it u should be good i say run like 6 to 9 psi

Nice . . i seen a guy made 275whp on 9psi but he had a big turbo . . but he was from florida though

i would say under 10 psi it will be fine

[94EJ1OwnS]

^^ okay so mostly i stay under 10psi until i build the block for boost . . .

I got a eg stock b16 turbo on 9psi daily driven def fun to drive I say go for it!!! Just get a good tune and u should be good as long as u don't beat on it all day everyday

^^ Nice , thats what i wanted to see/here lols . . i guess thats all the info i need . .so what kind of turbo kit should i get for it ? ?i really dont know about turbos

[94eg4dr]

I guess it depends on how much u wanna spend there are some good kits out there

[94EJ1OwnS]

^^ , maybe like $700-$1000 , i dont want no big turbo bcus for making around 260-300hp a big turbo will cause alot of lag i heard . .
