ive been toying with 2 ideas for a while now, either going down the route of a b18 engine conversion or to stick with my d14 engine and put on a turbocharger.
im slowly swaying to the turbo idea as i see its being used alot in the us on d15s and d16s. would my d14 engine cope with a turbo, so far i have a full exhaust system, induction kit and soon a greddy emanage and fpr will go on. would i need to do anything else or could it cope with a low pressure (say 5psi of boost) turbo system?

depending on what b18 your talking about, a turbo d14 @ 5 psi wont be any faster, but thats just my opinion. i dindt even know a d14 existed to be honest and i dont think there is a very large aftermarket selection for them becuase ive never seen anything advertised for them.

im not sure if you have them in the us but the d14 is basically a 1.4 ek hatch, the parts on it are the same as a d15 or d16 non vtec engine so aftermarket parts for these should be usuable on the d14. really considering putting on a turbo and was just wondering if anybody knew if it could handle 1 or not, i think in theory it should as there isnt much difference in the d15 non vtec and the d14 and providing i run it on a low boost then gradually try upping it. also if any1 can help i have an emanage but need to get wiring diagrams for the standard ecu, have another post for this is anybody can help me out with that aswell. cheers

boosted d14's are weak

boost the z6,y8, or zc
