Possible to turbo stock d16y4?

[StrawberryFace]

Hello i got a stock d16y4 and i really wan't to know if it is possible to turbo it without doing internal's?, And roughly how much power will be made. Got everything for the turbo setup of a mate now juss wondering if i should do it. Thanks in advance:thumbsup:

you can turbo the D16Y4, however you will have to do a bit of wiring as you wont be able to use the original ECU or plug in an OBDI ECU, you will want to conver the batch firing injectors to sequencial

yes stock internals can hold 120kw which is nice zippy little car.. upgrade injectios, fuel pump, wiring and decent ecu and your fine.

how long can it hold for??

[DLO01]

That really depends on a number of variables. Quality of parts used, how you drive the thing and how good its tuned.

Keeping the boost low it will last close to 2-3years.

Do it.
low boost and regular upkeep should do u fine.
i blew a motor cause my rad was leaking.
ull see a considerable gain.
contact lukezen if u need some help

Define 'low boost'?

Like 10 PSI or below? I've heard 10 is generally the limit for stock internals, though some people play it safe and go with 8 if they don't know how healthy their engine is.


Anyway, 10 PSI would surely see you make around 100-110kw ATW with the right exhaust etc, right?

lukez stock held 12.
im on 7-8

[dougie_504]

12 for how long? I thought that'd be a bit tough on the stock internals?

And Fo55il what engine you running/how much power are you making? Car? Other mods?

[Fo55il]

emanage. fmic injectors. fuel pump.
greddy bolt on.
100 wid 7 psi

[B16]

personally I wouldn't go above 6 psi on a D, but people here seam to push more. 6-8 with a good set-up should yield 120is atwkw, and as said with regular maintenance and a sensible driver (remember the biggest boost controller is your right foot) it'll keep going for years.
