What's the pros and cons on turbo kits on JDM 98 DC1 ZC engine

[keitho]

Hey guys,
I wanna turbo my car,

i just got a teg and the first thing i wanna do is turbo, i dont wanna B16 or B18 her!

shes a JDM Honda Integra 1998 DC1 with a ZC sohc non-vtec 1.6litre engine...shes completely stock...

I heard these motor are to soft to mod, is this true?
I google these car and they come 110 - 120 bhp factory.....

Let me know if i turbo this car how much bhp will i gain!
Is this adviseable to turbo the DC1

Has any1 ever turbo these cars on this site?

I'm from Ireland, Dublin.... so parts are pretty expensive to import!

why don't you want to put a dohc engine in that car?

x2
and its not worth the time nor money to boost a sohc

 

[Spody02]

the real question, there is no such thing as a dc1?
no 98 integra came with a sohc motor....

so your on crack, go look again

you're an idiot. do YOUR research before you talk down on another member. i dont care if you've been here long enough. why ask ask a question referring to another question? its because you dont really know the answer. /rant.

I thought the ZC was a dohc motor? Wasn't it in the JDM CRX Si-r?

DC1 Integra. IMO its not worth it to go turbo.

 

[TeggyBear_Ls]

OUCH! Nooooo! Why would you do that Honda!!!! Thats a SOHC Civic motor! And NON-VTEC! Ack!

 

[skoodles]

sohc in an integra should be illegal.

My friends civic is pushing 207.9 hp 174.5 ft lbs on 10 psi with an edelbrock kit on his 99 EX. It's fun, tranny will die though.

Your an idiot! Do YOUR RESEARCH! Idiot!

And i decided to K20 or B20! now the problem is will the bank manager lend me some cash!

Ireland at the moment is in recession!!! :cry::cry::cry::cry:

Thanx to everybody for helping me make my decison!

Except for the idiot that didnt do his research!

 

[keitho]

PS, does anybody wanna send be a dohc engine for free?

In ireland the price of a B18c is over 3000 euros thats around 2500 dollars!

and a turbo kit for a bseries is 3750 euros including professional fit!

You americans are lucky with all your honda needs and specialists!!!

Ok so are all the tards done posting a bunch of shit they know nothing about.

You have a d16 basically, it's not the zc that most secluded Americans are used to so excuse the rudeness. On the stock motor you can get away with boosting around 6-7 pounds. There is nothing wrong with sohc or non-vtec motors. The only weak point of that motor is the rods. Even without upgrading them and the pistons you can still easily squeeze 220+ out of the motor with enough torque to run the b series into the ground.
