Peak Boost B-Series Complete TurboKit [ PEAKKITBSERIES ] - Enjuku Racing - Performance Parts and High Quality Fabrication

that'd be a nice setup if you only want to buy things once and do it right

otherwise you can piece together a reliable setup, but theres no guarantee that things are going to fit right or work well together

do you have any previous experience with turbocharging cars?

thank you and no i do not this would actually be my first turbo charged car
 
then id recommend buying a kit that is already pieced together, itll make your life a whole lot easier.
youre still going to need a few things aside from that kit, but its very complete in terms of the turbo setup

now i have done some research on other forums and i seen that this isnt such a good idea becasue of the cylinder walls in the b20 there very weak how reliable do u think a stock b20b with a bolt on turbo good tune and like 10psi pushin around 250 maybee be?
 
stock b20b on 250whp is pushing it
the tune had better be really good. its not the sleeves you have to worry about at 250whp, its the pistons and rods
 
200whp would be a decent number on stock internals
itd be fairly safe and reliable dependent upon the tune of course
 
I recommend NOT buying a Peakboost kit. I bought the b-series ftw kit last year around May timeframe, and I am still waiting on a few parts....they sent parts to the wrong address twice. I don't doubt that they make good quality parts, but they are way too slow with processing and shipping. Also, that kit is not worth what they're asking now, mine was actually a little bit cheaper, I bought the kit when it was $2800. You can get one of those xspower kits for about $600. I had a b20b in my 97 coupe and made about 215whp on 8psi with an xspower kit, but I wouldn't use their manifolds.
 
my advice is to stay away from ebay turbo kits, but to each his own
 
Yea, well, piecing one together isn't a bad option either, it's just a matter of getting the right flanges, getting piping to match up etc. I'm sure you can find a place to make some custom piping for you too.
