| The D15B was a great little motor. I have a 95 LX that has a D15B7 in it now. I want to go turbo and do it cheap plus still have some good power. The D15B had 130 HP stock plus it is the best swap under the B and H series swaps. |

| The D15B has 130. It is not the same as the D15b7. The D15B came in Japan VTI 5th gen. civics. it was a kick ass engine. I am looking for a good place to build one. THat is what i need to know some ideas on machine shops. |

| im still gunna have to say WHY??????????? but hey to each their own... www.jgenginedynamics.com has D series engines, blocks, heads, whatever you want personally i think your wasting your time and money... i dont see the point in spending thousands on a D series just to be where a B or H series would have been stock... but if you really want to be the fastest D series around and still get spanked by B/H series cars... go for it |

| Well a Built D15B with 25-30 PSI is going to have a lot more HP then any stock B or H series engine. |

| For 2000 I can get a built D15B that can handle 15 psi and bolt strait into my car ,no mount kit. Take any Si out there even if it was slightly moded. I have seen a Turbo D16 in a rex run a 10.88. I guess its the fact that everyone goes B and H. I want to be different and have more of a braggin right when I spank a mustang with a 1.5lt. engine. |

| Did you ever stop and ask yourself why "everybody" goes B or H series? It's because you get more bang for your buck. So if by different you mean ignorant or cheap then yes, you will be different. |

| The VTi with the B16A sirII was an option. The EG8 VTi came with the D15B. http://asia.vtec.net/article/d15b/ <-----look there |

| Straight from the HS reference section y0! D15B . Displacement (cc): 1493 Power (bhp@rpm): 130@6800 Torque (ft/lbs@rpm): 14.1kg/m@5200 Compression Ratio: 9.6:1 Bore (mm): 75 Stroke (mm): 84.5 Cam Design: sohc VTEC?: yes OBD: Year(s) Produced: 1991-1999 In the following car(s): Honda Civic VTi (EG4) do ppl forget that we have those sections? Anyways.. you wont get more then 250-260 to the wheels in a STREETABLE fashion from a sohc d series. Even with fully built internals and mad tuning.. PSI don mean shit.. 30psi from a very very small turbo = 20 HP and 30psi from a big turbo = 400hp (exageration there).. so it all depends on your turbo y0!

| PSI is PSI. how can the be different? That doesnt even make sense. 30 pound per square inch is just that. 30 Psi. |

| Its not so much the fact of where its from. I just want to know where I can get a Built one and what kind of HP i can get from it. Everyone is saying that a b16 would be better. that is only .1 more displacment. Doesnt make sense to me. Displacement is displacement. |

The d-series trannies blow harder then a porn star.. after about 200 stuck to them, they are liable to break if you dont have aftermarket axles and lsd..even then, could shell.. B (pissedoffsol) is on his 3rd d series tranny and he has a pretty much stock motor.

http://www.hondaswap.com/forums/index.php?...=ST&f=12&t=2836 I agree that 30 psi=30 psi, but the reason the larger turbos produce more power at the same boost levels (at certain levels) is because the smaller ones heat the air more when the boost gets turned up and turbulence is increased because the compressor has to spin much faster. Also there is a exhaust backpressure issue that the smaller turbo is more of a restriction... | |

| Lets cut him some slack. I am sure I have seen a gutted rex with a d-series motor turbo'd run in the 10's somewhere, and pure track cars that run 9's. With a big budget I think that he could see 300hp to the wheels if he tunes right and since he is getting a fully built block it should be able to handle alot of boost, probably 20psi from a t3/t04e. Anythings possible. |

| your not going to find many if any other places that sell built D series engines, because no one gives a fuck about them, for the power that you get out of them you have to spend way to much money... your probly gunna have to pay through the ass and have it built by a local engine shop... a B/H series will still produce the same ammount and more power for less money... the only thing a D series engine will ever be is "fast, for a D series" kinda like a 17sec metro is "fast, for a metro"....
