if i plan on going turbo in my 90 crx and i have a sohc zc should i put a d16z6 head on this block or just swap a whole d16z6 motor in? my goal is to beat a subaru wrx sti so im looking to do around 400 hp. is this an acceptable goal? or is this even possible with a single cam? id like to do a single cam but i also want it to be a reliable car. can someone help me out that knows about turbos? i know barely anything when it comes to turbos. thank you so much!

You really need to know exactly what ya have first.

ZC SOHC vtec or no-vtec.

IF vtec, look at the intake side of the casting and it should be a P08 casting, if it is you already have a D16z6 head.

If not, look up mini-me vtec on google or just go to D-series.org and search.

Also this your first post and thread on here, go Force Induction section, lookup Free Turbo Kits ( http://www.realhomemadeturbo.com/forum/index.php/topic,25.0.html ) or NOOB of the year! ( http://www.realhomemadeturbo.com/forum/index.php/topic,14535.0.html )

Follow example of how your first thread should be done.

If ya want you can delete this thread and start over to make you look better.

Yes, its like getting jumped into a gang. U posting porn is your initiation. You either down with us, or your a homo, and you should just delete your account.

So true.

400hp is a serious goal for a d. I have a friend who is having issues with 300.  Dyno day soon, we will see what it is now.

Your looking at all forged internals, a cam, a large ball bearing turbo; possibly a sleeved block, and a lot of sequential tuning.   Shop tuning for a reliable setup will cost big time; trust me.  Don't expect it in one 3 hour session.

Hopefully your pocket book can cough up 2-3k for everything that will be needed.

If you shoot for 250ish; now your really in the right range for a novice turbo enthusiast.  Don't shoot the moon; work your way up.  You'll thank me and your pocketbook in the end.

I don't think noobs have any idea what 400whp feels like. For example, a lot of people think a lsv is fast. Those same people may some day put down 250whp with a ebay turbo kit, they will think it feels like 400. Until they actually have 400 and realize its a fucking handful. I Cant imagine what 600+ would be like.

My friend has a z6 that made 408? wheel, and he has a simple build.

wiseco pistons

eagle rods

ARP head studs

780cc injectors

ebay cast mani

HE351cw holset

Tuned by Sewell with ECTune, at like 20lb i believe, on pump 93, its not really that difficult....

Jarred, what the hell are you talking about?

300whp on a D is easy. Vitara pistons, eagle rods, a little head clean up, cast manifold and an eBay t3/to4e at 15-17psi will do it easy. I DD'd that exact setup and made 310/240 on 15psi. That was stock z6 intake, TB, and cam. I added valve springs, 28psi and 130 shot and made 487whp without changing anything else. Stock A6 sleeves too. It is well documented that 600-ish is their limit.

Still waiting 

[JaredKaragen]

Jarred, what the hell are you talking about?

1.5; not as easy.

I mainly say because 99% of heads don't go for proper tuning or assembly techniques.

[PhilStubbs]

A z6 or a6 head on there and it's all the same.

Made 500 on 30psi JD tuned, had a 120shot direct wet shot, but ectune update owns!

Mine had a lot more in it, we had to pull it back for traction on the dyno. 487 was the best we could get to hook once the nitrous button was hit.
