Drag3 Turbo Setup for B16: Questions

[CivicDragon916]

I’ve decided to go turbo and had a few questions. First off, I’m running a B16A2 and will NOT be upgrading the bottom end. Also the turbo will NOT see past 7 lbs boost – daily driven. This is the setup I’m going with . . . can you guys take a look at this let me know if there are any issues with the setup. Here are my concerns:

1. will the BLOX exhaust mani bolt up to the T4/T3 turbocharger and Tial 38mm wastegate
2. is it okay to run ITR camshafts with the turbo (no longer have stock cams)

DRAG 3 Turbo Kit – T4/T3 T04E turbocharger (w/ intercooler)
Tial 38mm Wastegate – 7 PSI
BLOX exhaust manifold
HKS BOV
Apexi Turbo Timer
Hondata
Gauges (of course)
Tanabe Racing Medallion Exhaust
Headwork – Port/Polish

** extra goodies**
ITR Intake Manifold
ITR camshafts
ITR 62mm TB

Just find out what the exhaust inlet flange is if worse come to worst u can always weld a new flange onto that manifold. If I was to run stock cams in a turbo engine I would run GSR's but the ITR's will be fine. Other than that u might wanna look into some 310 injectors or so. Other than that setup looks pretty good

Actually ITR and CTR cam make more power then the gs-r cams w/boost.
He'll need larger then 310cc injectors, i'd say 450cc at least.


How much power are you looking to make? Do you even care?

As far as power, I would be satisfied if I could hit the 220 WHP mark. But I'm not really too concerned about numbers to be honest. I'm just looking for some decent hp/tq gains. I will be dyno tuning the hell out of it though.

Will I need an MSD ignition? I'm looking around and notice most ppl with turbo setups are running them. also a boost controller is not needed right, since i don't plan on raising boost?
