The mean humidity of Florida swamp land has been decreasing over the past decade because of people building on the everglades, reducing the area of the surface water which causes more evaporation.

On a side note:

 The b20z from CRV's have siamesed sleeves that are prone to uneven cooling which causes cracking. You'll be fine with 7-8psi, man up, chip your ecu, get a real tune and enjoy a completely reliable vehicle.

Dang, if she's as dirty as that room...watch out! :mexi:


A decent turbo (new brand-name or good holset), good oil supply/return, healthy motor, no chargepipe leaks, good tune, and decent WG that works - along with almost any manifold (no SSAC). There's not much to it really. Just don't get greedy with boost or timing, or hammer on a tired motor.

Owning a reliable turbo car means having broken everything twice, you have double backups of everything and can fix anything in under 4 hours.

Let me be more specific you said you wanted a reliable dd and then you chose an afc hack vs chipping and chrome? Smells like Fail.

Sell that useless fanboi shit above, get an ostrich and ecutune, or an ostrich and chrome, and get a good tune. The good tune is what will make it reliable not ricey parts.

Post by: BoostForLife on June 16, 2009, 08:38:03 PM
Put the stock fpr back on. It's more reliable than the one you have one right now, on a stock honda motor, there's no need for a shiney FPR, in fact they might cause problems.

Take everything that's quted in the above thread off. $20 chip and $150-200 tune from a pro is 5000times better than and AFC hack on a honda, Get rid of the map sensor as well because you would want the ecu to see boost and add fuel/retard timing for it. It's up to you if you want the turbo timer, but on RHMT that's considered a waste of money.

Where did I say you were wasting your money, I told you to sell those parts and get something that works.

Title: Re: such thing as a reliable turbo setup for a DD
Post by: dvst8r on June 17, 2009, 10:12:37 AM
Since your asking for help the other thing you should sell is the turbo. Get something without the internal waste gate and buy an external gate. The size of turbo is fine, but the internal gate tends to creep or leak or just be fail.

For injectors just pick up a used set of dsm 440's or 550's or rx7 460's or anything else you can pick up cheap.

Finally stop getting your panties all in a bunch, this is rhmt not www.weholdyourhand.com (http://)

Post by: Teg2boo on June 17, 2009, 10:42:28 AM
You only want 7-8psi, but you bought pieces for a 20psi setup.

What I see that is wrong.

-Downpipe, unless you buy the exact same manifold and turbo size it was designed for it will not fit.

-Bypass valve, why? You are going to chip your ECU anyway, its not an option.

-255 fuel pump, the stock one will do the job on dd at 7psi.

When you do a cheap turbo kit, you look for cheap pieces. Only parts that worth money is turbo, wastegate and for some ppl the BOV, but I think the ebay can do the job.

You will need to cut and reweld the downpipe I'm 90% sure of this. I hope your intercooler kit was designed to have the turbo on this side! I also hope that you can keep PS with it.

Get cheap injectors, you don't need over 450cc.

Seems like you got some nice parts for free man.

Don't be a pansy, B18B can handle more than 7-8 and easily be reliable. People have ran 15psi daily set ups, and I say if your motor checks out in good condition go for it.

Just get a reliable tuner to work with you, read pgmfi.org, read here, read read read and read.

Title: Re: such thing as a reliable turbo setup for a DD
Post by: HiProfile on June 18, 2009, 08:05:53 PM
If you switch to some cheap slim fan and overheat, there is a much higher chance of the sleeves heating up too far & cracking. SPAL fan or stock -- nothing else, just FYI.

Make sure you run a restrictor in the feed line, ~.060" is good. The return line looks a bit small and too long. Chances are you'll have to bend it to fit the spot you choose, which will cause oil to back up or puddle - very bad situation for the turbo's seals.


Regardless of getting a VAFC+bypass for free, you can still sell them & get a decent street tune instead. Its like getting a pink louis vuitton luggage set when you're thinking about traveling - you wouldn't keep them, you'd flip them for a profit & get manly shit. Getting a wideband + display would also be a good idea, at least for the future if something decides to crap out on you enough to change the tune.
