200whp?

I like how no one had mentioned that if he uses a DSM turbo of any sort he is either going to need an adapter of some sort.
The 14B from the Eclipse is a little small. It would spool instantly but I think you will find it lacking in power. But for 200hp its great AND CHEAP.

The larger Mitsu TDH05-16G is a fantastic turbo. The largest version found in the Evo9 can make up to 375hp. Its spools very fast, its a true twin scroll (not just divided inlet) and OEM quality. You can get them for a reasonable price used. Because they are so popular they are becoming hard to find used. There are a lot of fakes (ebay knock offs) and a few companies are making new replicas. The only downside is its a non standard turbine flange (not a T25/28 or T3) so you will have to buy an adapter or make a custom manifold for it.
Guess you missed this.

lol. and yes 300 is considered the safe limit for a stock B18. Find a good tuner who you trust. Dont forget the fuel system.

its a guesstimate, approximation so it doesn't matter. Its not like it would pop at 301. Its a grey area, results may vary.

Get a leak down test and compression test done on the motor before you turbo it. Just my recommendation so you can get an idea of the health your motor is in.

People should just use nitrous.

It really shows the health of the motor when a small shot blows up your whole block even with a pro tune.

My car makes 300 and it's my dd, as long as it's a good tune then your good to go! I started with an eBay kit but the only eBay part left on my car is the intercooler and the bov, which the bov is getting replaced soon..

Another good turbo option which muckman told me about is the Garrett gt28. Good spool and makes good power for this power range. Check them out, got mine for $700 I think? Can't remember exactly. But as everyone else said don't forget the fuel system, injectors, Walbro 255 ect.

Did you ever post a dyno graph of the finished tune? Id also like to see a boost plot. How fast does that gt28 spool?
