anyone

im looking to make 275 to 300 hp off of this

Ditch the FMU, get a chipped ECU and someone to tune it. Chrome is popular and very inexpensive.

And I don't know for sure, but 300 may be pushing it with that turbo. I've got an 18G and am only expecting to make around 280 or so. But who knows...

well ive decided to just boost my d15 until it goes BOOM because its almost dead anyway lol

lol how hp are you going to get out of that? im interested to know becoase i got a buddy of mine doing something like that

 

[89y49rexsi]

just do it but you at the very least need an fmu and a missing link and a better fuel pump and injectors

You need to get some arp headstuds and probably new rods if you want to get into high 200s or even 300whp. It's a fairly small turbo I wouldn't shoot that high with it anyways.

if you use an FMU then your an idiot and you will be made fun....

get a chipped ecu and get someone to tune it....do it the right way the first time....

+1

Adjustable FPR and a 255lh fuel pump depending on your realistic goals and youll be fine.. crome is reliable program and many have had alot of success with it. If it sucked, no one would use/recommend it.

need to lower the compression on the b16 while you're at it if you want to get into the high 200s to 300 whp

 

[TiiM iiS l3eAsT]

nah ive seen many b16s make around 300whp with stock pistons/compression....

if you plan to make 400+ hp then yes you should lower the compression to 9:1

Don't get an ebay turbo manifold. thats the one part you should spend the extra money on

16g is kinda small for that much power. look into an td05h 18g or a t3 hybrid
