Help and Advice Needed EK1 Turbo setup........
Hey guys,
I have a d16y4 that has been turbo'd, but the engine is on its way out. When the oil cap is opened, she is blowing heaps of white smoke (i suspect rings), plus I have been told that the engine is down on compression.
I was wondering my options, it terms of where to go from here. Any advice would be greatly appreciated....
1) Get another D16y4 (SOHC non vtec) and put all the turbo parts back on.
2) Get a ZC (DOHC non vtec engine) and put all the turbo parts on.
3) Get a b16A (DOHC vtec) and turbo it.
The current setup runs a garrett turbo and a front mount, with Apexi SAFC-II and a GReddy ECU.
If I run the ZC engine will i need to change the turbo manifold?
Will I need to forge all the engines regardless to do the job properly, or could I say get away with just the d16y4 with all the turbo parts bolted on without forgies.....
Appreciate the time and advice,
