so you are saying that i can run 8 psi of boost on a stock b16 engine where the cr is like 10.4:1?? i was told to go down to 8.8:1
A small turbo on a high compression motor will spool too quickly and produce a lot of torque and cause high cylinder pressure that might stress the internals of the motor too much. A larger turbo that comes on boost a little higher in the RPM range will produce more peak horsepower but less torque. The lower cylinder pressure from this reduced torque will keep reliablity up.

That is the motor I will be swapping into an EG or EK hatch and boosting sometime in the distant future.

if you can afford a c5/c-r you can probally afford a k20a swap. i think the b18c goes for around how much a k20a type-r goes for, around 5g

im looking to drop my 1.5L d15b engine for a more powerful and faster engine ... i was wondering what was everyones opinions on which engine is the best to swap too ... im looking for something thats going to be a daily driver but still be able to push the HP numbers up into the 250-300 range ... ive heard the H22A and B18c1 engines preform rather well under boost in the EG chassis ... but that the H22A weighed 85lbs more overall than the B18c1 ... i know the H22A comes with 210hp and the b18c1 with 170hp ... but can you make the GSR engine swap faster and more reliable than the H22A?
