sorry about the 300 repley i was thinking of a b series
Without an unbelievable good tune on a b series i still wouldnt want 300whp on stock internals.

just boost it. Run 6-8 psi. Get a good tune, youll make around 150-160 WHP, and that will be way more than stock, and ull be happy. Check to DIY section for my grocery list turbo kit. Boost for under a G.

Boosted cars are the $hit. U are punching it, and then around 3500-4000 rms boost hits and BAM your tires start looking for real traction. My car is Automatic, and it sucks..........however, my automatic honda civic will chirp the tires in second gear........and ive got 17s on the car. 10 psi.

oh yeah well as soon as i punch the gas even at 1k rpms i see a full 8lbs[8D] i love my supercharger..........makes for a very fun daily driven car. but either way boost is the way to go if you want to make good power and not have to worry about daily driving like say an n/a d-series motor with evn 160bhp.

Pete when you say "just boost it" you are talking about my stock d15b7 right? Everyone has conflicting reports on whether the stock engine can take it. Everyone is saying the stems can't handle it! Which is it?????? Can a stock d15b7 handle boost??? If so how much??

I like superchargers, BUT.........my turbo is much less limited. Internal upgrades on my motor and crank the boost up to 15 psi........still wouldnt max t[sm=bling.gif][sm=smiley20.gif][sm=w00t.gif]he turbo out. Oh and I get 45+ MPG on the highway @ 65 mph

Can someone explain to me what you are exactly referring to when you say a good "tune". I think I know, but just want to make sure I am on the same page. Thanks

it means you take your car to a reputable tuner who tunes your A/F's and ignition on a dyno...
