sohc on boost can run...i have a friend who has a 93 hatch with a d15b7 on 22lbs of boost
keep in mind engine is built very well and tuned

 

i drove my friends Integra GSR (B18c1) and i think my boosted D could pull on it. It's definitely got some snap, but i'd say it's power is like my D at 4 or 5 psi, but i can go all the way to 9.5 PSI. With boost you learn SO much if you do it yourself, i'd recommend it.

 

so ur saying i can turbo my d16 and if i decide later on to swap a b18 ill be able to use the turbo and all its parts on the b18?

 

Not all the parts but the majority of the part you can probably use. The exhaust manifold won't fit, but I think that's the only thing that clashes. I agree with flip, you do learn a lot when you turbo it yourself, especially when you build the engine to boost it. But it all depends on what you wanna do. I always think of my car as an accomplishment because I can run with the faster cars and I'm only running a sohc.

 

yh i had decided that if i turbo my d16 i was gona build the engine a bit. i think i made my decision haha turbo the d16 .. haha and b4 i buy any part ima put it in here so u can guys can tell me if its good or bad haha i know im a pain

 

A turbo is probably the best route, most, if not all, will agree you should do the work yourself.

and why no H22 94? A little over 200 HP and a bunch of torque bone stock sounds good to me I've driven a civic with that swap, it's pretty crazy lol.

 

get a k20.. they are the new b18's

 

im kinda of a newb haha but no doubt ima try to do it myself ... with you guys help of course haha
