good turbo build?

[AlexD]

I see no reason why you couldnt use a gsr head.

I have a intercooler at one of my shops that just needs end tanks if some one knew a good place to order those i could just finish that intercooler. Would a gsr head on a b16 block be a good idea for turbo build? Or would the springs and retainers be worth the swap in to the b16 head?

Would it be a bad idea to run cp 81.5mm 10.5 comp pistons? I here the higher comp will bring out a little more torque. My goal is only 350 to 450 wheel.

 

[AlexD]

Make sure your tune is good, you could get away with it. Im a little over 10:1 with a milled head and 10:1 pistons at 81.5

Also would a t3/t4 .57 ar turbo going to be a ok size turbo for this build for about 18 psi maxx ? starting psi 14.5 after that tune wait some time up the psi to 18 than probly buy a bigger turbo after that.

Quit going by PSI

 

[Tam4511]

Raising the compression is a good idea, i have 9.8:1 weiscos in mine. It will create more low end torque and less turbo lag. And like Alex said, oyu cant go by PSI, stick with a power goal, get a boost controller, and when you go to get it tuned tell the tuner how much power you want and he will set it up for you.

Sorry i was going by psi since i know the motor will be ok with a forged bottom end. The 14.5 is where i will start no matter what hp it puts out.

Why the hell will you go with 14.5 psi? You should really think of the POWER your going to put out..

you should start with whatever spring you plan on using in your wastegate and go from there

hey guys Its coming down to ordering some pistons and I got a gsr block and im using my b16 head but cp dosen't make the comp ratio i want for the gsr block its either 9;8.1 witch with this setup would be 9;4.1 or 11.1 witch would be 10;8.1 and i want to use these SC7101 witch are 10;5.1 witch would be around 10;1.1 witch i would be fine with. Can i use these pistons SC7101 cp with manley h rods for gsr? Do i have to match the gsr pistons with gsr rods? Not sure if this would be a problem or not?

 

[patrick4588]

why dont you get the 9.8:1 cp pistons, then mill the head to bump the compression a tad? deck the block? You have to match your rods with your crank, doesnt matter which pistons.

 

[ssmokeyy]

yeah i was planing on using gsr rods. With out doing anything will a cp b16 piston fit on a manley h rod?
