#318238 Did a little bit of researching and some says it's possible and reliable on stock internals WITH 93 octane gas, I was just wondering if this was true because it might be a better bang for the buck to boost a gsr motor over a z6.

#318258 Anyone?

#318259 Yup. All the b series motors are good to 300whp on 93 with a good tune. The pistons like to start melting when you get above that on pump. My tuner says e85 will let you take it closer to 400whp.

#318262 My current LS has been at 286whp for a year now with almost 100 passes at the drag strip without missing a beat.

#318337 My stock b18b1 has been boosted for approx 14,000 miles. Made 348whp, ARP head studs are the only thing changed.

Doing a ported head and cams, gonna try for 400whp on pump.

#318353 Did you guys at least any mods supporting the turbo if it was on stock internals? And are you still running boost on your engine HatchSI?

#318431 That's great I think might try b series then, if not gsr then ls with a b16. But I've always been wondering, are there any problems mating an obd1 block with obd2 tranny and vice versa? I have strict smog laws here so I was just wondering if mating 2 differnt obds will cause problems. Anyone?

#321423 There's people making 600+ on stock engines. 300 is a cake walk
