[B147ch]

lol THANKYOU!!!
a swap aint THAT straight forward..
godddd i need turbo!
goin for some DC sports headers this weekend!
hmm perhaps i could bolt on a turbo whilst in installing the headers!! muahahaha

err no. You need a turbo manifold.

Just save your money and boost it. You will love it.
It will beat pretty much most NAs, and a B series does not have the torque or power of a boosted car.

turbo D need to get engineered to be legal. To much shit needs to get done to get a turbo D to be road legal.

Better with a b16a 1.6L, swaps can be had for around 3k-4k. A half decent turbo setup will set you back 4-5k.

[B147ch]

hmmmz true..
i'm already in love with my NA SOHC VTEC, so you can imagine how id feel once its boosted! lol
may need to rebuild tho. engines clocked 140 but been fastidiously maintained.
what ya think?

[B147ch]

i got quoted on that half cut B16a just for that is close to 4k.
swapping is a nasty job too. heh

Sure be fine to boost

Jimmys right though..

engineering Turbos is a bit costly

turbo D is the future mate...
apparenly running around 11psi will make you as fast as a K-swap...

lol sure is...until they blow up

he has a gli motor so he needs to swap to a d series 1st
that will set him back 1-1.5k
then he has 2 k left over for a turbo kit
ebay ftw turbo kit
i would doubt that this d series turbo will be quick as some of u are saying
better off saving your money mate so u will have a better budget

[VT1-R]

lol

Ya think!!

I'm at 160wh at the fly for just under $4000 with my Turbo D on stock exhaust, with be 173wk at the fly with bigger…

Would been even cheaper if I did all my shit first and tuned all at once..

160hp at the fly is same as b16a at the fly.. so no issues on that.. so we prove that turbo D is as gd as b16a stock..

but for $4000 turbo.. u did most of the work urself? 4000 include tuning cost?

also.. for $7000 he nid to swap in D series SOHC vtec+labour.. put in a turbo+labour... i tink 7000 is a reasonable estimate.. in real world.. shit goes wrong.. maybe u are jus lucky..

Thats true... some ppl think its just so easy jus to whack on a turbo jus for that wank factor.. so much hidden cost involved.. dun do it till you have enough $$, in this case, this guy has $$3500!!!.. If going down turbo path will give him more headaches and he will have no extra $$ to solve it straightaway coz i assume he is a student...a straight B swap will give lesser problem while feeling a gd jump in power over 1.5 sohc no vtec.. Seriously, he can turbo the B series later on as well...
