DelSolSweetie Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 you can build what ever you want hondas seem to like turbos okay but at the same time its still a honda... was talking to a guy last night who traded a very well condition hatch for a pos miata just to get outta hondas cause he's built quite a few and could never get the power and reliability he was looking for again.. search go look at peoples builds for d15s.. most people will do a mini me swap (look it up.. there are write ups everywhere).. mini me would probably be your best bet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trae%eh6 Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 i would do a mini me swap you will get more power out of it in high rpms. but other than that for just a little power just do your basic bolt ons and that will help some and a tune always helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelSolSweetie Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 yah he sounded like he'd been doing them for a while guy in class with me who claimed to have a 400hp all motor b16 and blew it up.. probably wasnt doing something right the miata guy was also getting tired of FWD mini me's are good.. they can put out decent power.. but as brian said you have to build them right.. if you f up your wiring it wont work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeryon Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Or he was doing ricer math and just adding up all the HP numbers listed in the eBay sales pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what I said! which led to an amusing arguement.. but I told him he was full of crap and he traded the FWD hatch for a RWD 400hp all motor? the hell? ive only heard of numbers like that in honda drag cars.. he had to be yanking your chain.. he might have had like 250 - 300ish and just lied about having 400 I thought so too! Or he was doing ricer math and just adding up all the HP numbers listed in the eBay sales pages. That might be it.. bad thing is he is a future engineer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
