I would, but I don't think the "uppers" would be very happy about me posting links to other forums

 

I would stay away from using a turbo without an intercooler. Turbos generate an outrageous amount of heat, and with nothing to cool it, it will put a lot of wear and tear on your engine. Regardless of running low boost, the heat is going to still be there, and it is a risk. Good luck, and I hope eveything works out for you!

 

like the greddy kit that does not included an intercooler and its fine to run it at a low psi.

 

or just buy each part piece by piece when you have the money

thats what im starting to do, i spend 2-3 hours a night looking on the web for good deals and also just reading up on a lot of info on the web...i posted a site that explains everything for the turbo in this section

good luck

 

I'm running a non intercooler turbo system at 7psi on my 95 civic d15/t3 (164 whp on dyno). I've had it for over a year like this. The intake does feel too warm to keep my hand on for more than a second, but I have had no problems with detonation. A/F ratio is good and have had no detonation.

However, the oil seal on the turbo is leaking a ton of oil now. I wonder if the hot compressed air is making the engine run even hotter and somehow blew the seal. Or the old saab turbo died of natural causes.

I am going to put an intercooler on with my next set up, t3/t4 with bigger injectors and safc.

I didn't let not having the $ stop me from boosting, just do it and run 6-7psi.

 

you sir are an idiot. Running an non-intercooled setup isnt safe. Would you take that chance on a b16? maybe a d15b7 cause who ****ing cares...not B series. Lets also try and remember that you cant run 6psi on a gt35r and 6psi on a t25 and make the same power.
