Default need some help

hi just wanting 2 know a couple of things 1st things 1st i am really interested in boosting my 1.6 (d16z6) but just wanting 2 know if u would consider a engine rebuild it has 75000 on the clock ,which i know is not a lot 4 a honda but i understand the extrapresure a turbo adds. and also i am not wanting massive amounts of power (not just yet anyway ha ha ) so would it b possible 2 run with the standard injectors or would they still need uprating thanks

you're definitely going to want to upgrade the injectors. You'd have to run next-to-no boost to safely keep the stock injectors (as far as I know, anyway). And go to autozone and rent a compression tester. It's like a $30 deposit, and you get it all back when you return the tester. If your cylinders are within 10% of each other, you're good to turbo it.

if your planning on running more boost later, just build it while you have the block apart anyways
