Have any of you guys heard about the Drag Turbo kits? I have a 93 blue Integra LS with a JDM GSR motor swapped in with all the bolt ons and a type R cam running Greddy E-manage and a 255 fuel pump… Basically all I’m missing is the turbo setup… Its going to be putting down ridiculous power, but what kit is the question… anyone have ideas? or opinions on the Drag or others?
first of all u should read haberdasher’s guide to boosting a DA its in the archieves and its a stickie on this forum.
ridiculous power meaning? and u plan on keeping ur motor stock. to me ridiculous power means a fully sleeved built motor, a race setup head, a well put together turbo system (not a kit) (except maybe fullrace topmount kit)w/gt40 turbo 700hp.
EMS would be AEM or Neptune. dont forget the clutch to handle that power and lsd and suspension. price would be somewhere around $12,000
(there are some will say u dont need to sleeve the block its all about the tunning) so u save $1000
so whats ur budget for ridiculous?
drag kits r good but the wastegate placement is not good, peakboost is a good kit.
from prostreetonline about Drag kits.
How much horsepower will I gain with this kit?
If installed properly most kits will add easily and additional 100+ HP to the wheels as measured and proven on a DynoJet Dyno meter. For example the 2000 Acura GSR kit on a stock motor will produce around 270-275Hp to the wheels at around 7-8 PSI of Boost.
How much boost can this kit handle?
Most kits are designed to run between 6-12 PSI of boost on a stock engine; however, all kits are capable of supporting up to 450hp and 25 psi of boost provided you have the proper fuel management and a properly built motor.
I dont really think Drag turbo kits are for ridiculous power. I used to have the drag kit but then decided to fully build my motor and piece up a turbo kit. Drag kits are good for stock motor 8-10psi. Good fuel management and tuning is the key.
if you want ridiculous power, you should look into buying my turbo kit, its modeled around a DA, its excellent parts, and its cheaper than a drag kit, check out my thread in the for sale forum or email me clemsonteg@yahoo.com
ridiculous power meaning less than an ls, ive never seen a c5 motor that is more powerful that some of the ls/vtecs around (600 whp Honda tuning Integra project car ls/v)
Full potential b18a = 15 psi
Full potential b18c = 10-12 psi
