Hey guys, so i'm not very good at this whole forum thing but i need a hand. I'm currently in the middle of rebuilding/building my D16a8 as a turbo Build. I've purchased:
4 Nippon Racing Honda D16 Vitara Turbo Pistons
SCAT Honda Civic D16 Forged H-Beam Rods with ARP Rod Bolts
King Silicon Coated Connecting Rod Bearings
NPR Gas Nitrite N-51 Coated Racing Piston Rings
High Strength case Hardened 9310 Steel Wrist Pins
8 Sprial Lock Wrist Pin Clips
and thrust washers so far.
I'm in need of main bearings that are std size as i spun a big end but have since got the crankshaft linished and fixed. What type would be good for this and what do i look out for?
I know i need to do some work to the top end but that is coming a little bit later as there is foreign object damage around the valve of cylinder 2, but will include Valves and valve springs, head studs and possibly cams.
How would i go about engine management to allow to tune the turbo build as it is OBD0 and i cant seem to find anything that will work? Is obd1 conversion possible and how would i go about this?
The compression ratio should be around 8.5.1 and i'm looking for around 300HersPers to 400HersPers what turbo would be efficient at doing this? (Not looking for one that starts to spools at redline)
I Have been researching for weeks now, On every single lunch and smoko break and when i get home but i am having great difficulty finding everything. This is my first time building an engine by myself but i am trying to do everything as right as i can, getting as much knowledge of as many people i can and not taking shortcuts to make sure its atleast semi reliable.
If i have left out anything that anyone thinks should be covered/changed please feel free to point it out!
Any help would be greatly appreciated Thank You
