    Pistons, Rods, & Head HELP

    I built a monster D15B7 with a T3T4 turbo and all the other goodies to go with it. I put in the Vitara Pistons with the stock rods and that put the compression at 6:1. I did this because I couldn't afford the rods at the time. I ran the car for almost 1,600 miles and blew a head gasket (I...

    Sell or Trade: 92 Civic Turbo

    The chart results were around 6:80:1 so I guess they're closer to 7:1 but I wasn't going to lie about it.

    Compression test Question

    Surprisingly there was no difference at all. They all hit 120psi on the dot. Made me smile since its my first Honda build.

    Compression test Question

    I did the test twice to make sure it was accurate. I ended up with 120psi in all four cylinders. The results were the same both times.

    D15B7 Turbo: Hesitates, sluggish, and running rich.

    Does anyone think it would be a better idea to purchase a turbo chip? I would use it instaed of my basemap to make it to a tuner. The link below shows the chip I'm thinking about trying...

    Compression test Question

    I have the D15b7 with Vitara Pistons and stock rods. My question is this: What should the results be when doing a compression test with these pistons in this motor? The piston height is 28.3mm and dish volume is -15cc. No boring or any modifying to cylinder walls or deck. The ratio went from...

    D15B7 Turbo: Hesitates, sluggish, and running rich.

    I tried to run without an O2 sensor at first but it set off a code and wouldnt hardly run. It will idle all day long but when I rev it up or drive it, it is restricted and sluggish. There is only one O2 with the D15B7.

    D15B7 Turbo: Hesitates, sluggish, and running rich.

    You've been a great deal of help, thank you. Im going to pick up a gun tomorrow and try it out. Should I use new plugs, or just clean up a pair that were used long enough to turn black?lol

    D15B7 Turbo: Hesitates, sluggish, and running rich.

    I know for a fact that the mechanical timing is on because all the marks still match up perfectly. The thing I did not realize is that Im dealing with 2 different types of timing. I figured since the mechanical timing was dead on that the ignition would be too. When I put the cap and rotor on...

    D15B7 Turbo: Hesitates, sluggish, and running rich.

    I really dont think the timing is off and if it is, it sure isnt enough to do all this. I spent many hours going over the timing to be sure it was correct. Where could I get one of those guns? What do they cost, cause I dont have much cash at the moment? I'll still try it out to be sure?

    Chiped ECU or Stock ECU

    I have to drive almost 200 miles to get to my tuner. I tried running my setup with the chiped ECU in my car and have had nothing but trouble with the performance and the plugs. The chip I have is just a basemap. Would I be better off running the OEM ECU to get to the tuner, or should I run the...

    D15B7 Turbo: Hesitates, sluggish, and running rich.

    Thank you so much for that reply. I was hoping to find someone with this problem on the same motor. I will for sure be changing that. Did the sluggish go away when you drove it, or did you not have that problem? Did you also turbo your D15?
