Is it worth the risk, thats one question. Ive got a book somewhere that says the crank in the B16 is good for approx 700hp, so not sure if the rods etc can deal with anything like that. Honda are known for over engineering things, but I guess it comes down to can you afford to change them or not and possibly break something, how you will feel if it does go bang. Remember any chain is only as strong as the weakest link. If I was doing that kind of work and putting that money in, I think I would just get the strengthened parts too. If a jobs worth doing then do it well.
those are very wise words. i think in my opinion if i was to boost i would like to see what results i could get from stock internals but i think ultimately i would want to get stronger internals. It is definitely better to be safe than sorry. Still, i have read that people have boostednwith stock internals so fair play to them.
I would like to see what a banana con rod looks like though....just not on a 9....maybe a renault or peugeot or something.
