I'm really interested in getting a turbo for my 99' ex with a D16 engine, but.. I don't know if its worth the money, or if it'll blow my engine down the road.Would it be more worth my interest todo an engineswap with say.. a b16? back to the D16... What type of turbo can I run without pushing my engine over the limit and causing me even more money. The engine right now has a3-2-1 header with a full exhaust, anda lot of dress-up items that were on it whenI bought the car. I am aware that I will need to upgrade a few other things, like the ecu and fuel system. but the thing I don't know is how much of the fuel system I will need to upgrade. just the injecters? or a new fuel rail and pump also? I need lots of help guys.
I have a stock ex motor (d16y8) bolt on turbo and tuned. I’m currently running 9psi and I daily it. As long as your not ******* the car everyday everywhere you go you’ll be fine up to that range. You start driving like a pissed off teenager then you’ll blow your head gasket or cause a major issue. But I stress it’s all how you drive it. I’ll list my current set up below..
Motor- Bone stock d16y8 from a 98 ex (obd2a)
add ons:
-AEM 340lph
-FIC 1000cc injectors
- GT35 Turbo .70ar(compressor) .93AR(turbine)
- 2.5” charge piping
- Mishimoto M Line intercooler
- HKS SSQV bov
-AEM AFR
- PLM top mount manifold (modified for gt35 turbo)
- skunk2 mega power RR 76mm(3”) exhaust
-custom 3” test pipe
- 3” downpipe
- precision turbo 46mm wastegate with atmospheric dump tube
-Hondata s300 V3
like I said the motor is completely stock internally I’m running the stock fuel rail for now stock fuel filter it’s putting around 220-250 to the wheels after the tune. But again I drive it most days like I would a regular car and don’t abuse it. I do regular oil changes and just keep checking gaskets and seals for leaks to stay on top of it.
