intake, header and exhaust and if you really want to blow the doors away you can get a nice set of cams and cam gears.

next time I´ll take you for a spin so you can see what I´m talking about

I´ve decided to get the swap in the summer (still paying the loan for the supra ) instead of boosting my SOHC, just got to figure out what motor to get.

i doubt a B16 with just basic addons can beat a SOHC Turbo.

You're trippin G!


If it were me, i'd keep the turbo, save up for & buy a B16. Turbo that thing, along with a MOTEC system and 310cc injectors, intercoled, and you'll be laughing.

Also depends what mods are on the SOHC turbo. They also can be made quick.

How much were you thinking of selling it for? $100 and I'll take it off your hands. jk

this sux, been tryin to sell this thing for a whilenow along with my extreme rear..stil have no luck...ohh well i guess ill keep trying and maybe hit up ebay..thnx guys

It all comes down to the driver. I'd say build the D16Z6 and run 20lbs of boost. I'd take that any day. Or save up fro a B16 adn Turbo that.

I disagree.
It all depends on how much boost their running and the mods they have.
If the SOHC VTEC is running 15lbs then hell no.
But I still wouldp ut my $$ on the SOHC VTEC Turbo

20psi of boost is not for an every day ride, I´ve taken out SOHC with 12-15psi of boost so thats why I say a B16 will kill a boosted D16

i say sell it and sell it fast coz those small problems will soon cost u more than the price of the turbo kit hehehe ..

seriously go for the swap ...

How much boost can you safely develope in a d16z6 with the turbo kit intercooled??

I would have to say no more than 5 if you doint want to be detonating

with some tuning i say 7...im at 5.5 now and have no problems really since i got it tuned...engines been runnin just as good as before turbo except for the piston rings being shot
