Hey guys whats the dealie...i was wondering if i could turbo upgrade the big ol H without touching internals.....you know how we are sometimes low on the cash....maybe boosting it at 5-8 psi....any info would be great!

Cut timing is a big factor to engine longevity.
He must've faked the dyno graphs too, right?

thats pretty shitty for an h22 at 10 psi. i wouldn't turbo it because the bottom end it weak as fuckOriginally posted by fizzbob7Comment

not hard too......jk. I dont know. 400 whp on 18 lbs with 16* timing I think it was.... I don't know... I would never do it... that's why I said IMO don'tOriginally posted by WeDgENo and no.

It depends on the engines condition,how long you plan on boosting,and oh last but not least anymotor can blow up it depends also on whos tuning it and what condition its in and can you keep up with the maintenance like any other turbocar and notice a problem. I say build it before you boost any motor better safe than sorry. Just make sure you have a spare ride to work and such

There are lots of turbo h22's in this with stock internals but use a thicker head gasket to lower the compresssion. There is a place called Inline Pro that has built lots of them. From what I understand the customers have been running like that for a couple of years. If you decide to call them, speak with Stan.Comment

I ran my h23 with stock internals at 12 psi for over 9 months before i built a solid block...as long as your timing and your fuel raito are dead on you shouldnt have any problems. All of my customers who have tried to tune h22, h23, and b16 motors with out going to a pro to do it have leaned out and detonated....thats what kills turbo motors. You need at least an SAFC and someone to do the tuning for you....otherwise...leave it alone. My race team (High Altitude Performance)stock bottomend b16 in a 89 civic with SAFC II and 450 injectors ran a dyno best of 368hp and 305 ft/lbs of torque. Id say thats pretty damn good with 14 psi.
Id do it if your low on cash...but keep the boost under 10 and get it professionally tuned.Comment

its scary.. lol.. vtec needs high compression.. so ive heard..but the powers that can come out of a boosted h22.. cawt damn..1st Car 1990 Accord Ex-R*Dead // Tow Truck

I ran my stock block with an inline pro headgasket for a lil over a year. Daily boost being 8psi with the time to time 11psi blasts. Only reason that motor let go was because I ran about 13-14psi due to boost creep and I didn't the car past 11psi. But if I was you, sleeve and build the block from the start. The stock h22 on the link that WeDgE gave you is sick for a stock block. Here is another link of a stock h22: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=749784, his #3 rod bolts failed.Carlos
