I turbo'ed on a few weeks back and the clutch started to slip after a day or soo. I ran ultimate boost with waste gate welded shut hahahah ( i was trying to blow the engine though) but it seemed fine ran it for a few weeks and nothing happened.

if you do it right _nice ecu tuning_ adequate injectors etc, the engine can easily handle 200bhp without swapping stock internals. It bears boost better than d16s due to lighter internals and ideal r/s ratio (close to b16b)
check out Sebastix's project. Actually it is a d14vtec with ITBs and Turbo. The itbs give the engine great air efficiency resulting in making this power with minimum boost (6 psi)! This car has nothing to envy comparing to a b16b, and in case it brakes you buy another engine with 250pounds. Beat that! hehe Honda Civic - Sebastian Hagens
