hey successful LS builders have a couple of questions about building my healthy b18b1 motor. no motor swaps want to build the top end of the b18b1 and slap a full race turbo kit..can anybody give me some help on building the best possible b18b1 head? btw no ls-vtech..
he's a pick of the lady all oem original paint rare color b97m

 

here is the lady during the work week with ls mesh wheels,
all oem vin#'s all around razor sharp all jdm integra type -r integra amber everything seats all itr suspension. very very healthy LS 60 miles motor shifts gears like butter, i love buying from old couples........
plans start building the b18b1 head with your guys advice then full race turbo kit with a/c......

 

BTW not 1 single ding or dent on this rare oem teggy!!!

 

an ls comes with a type r lip sidemarkers and rear vallence painted oem?

 

im confused whats the point of this...so are u asking how to build your motor for boost?

 

yes please it would be very helpful

 

no ls vtech, want to build a ls power house

 

all oem side markers?

 

Bump

 

hate to burts your bubble but if it is a 2000 ls and has all type r amber instrument ligting it is not all oem and to side markers on the fenders are not oem

 

There is no way you can avoid the suggestion of LS vtec. Our heads just have bad airflow. Being that you are in Cali you can't legally run LSV if that is the concern. The only option for the best power is a swap but you don't want to go in that direction right? So pretty much all you can do is change the valvetrain and slap the turbo on her.

 

step 1
pull that wack *** blue tint off
step 2 ls-v

 

hahahah

rebuild with all oem parts, arp bolts and anything thatll help u with reliability like new con rods and. and new low compression pistons, new turbo kit and upgrade ur fuel system, upgrade ur valve train.. and anything else they sell on www.skunk2.com, www.passwordjdm.com,

 

Nice and clean. I built my ls. I put lower compression pistons, forged rods then replaced everything in my head and got it ported and polished for more flow. I also got oversized intake valves but that might be excessive depending on what you want. From the reading I've done I've heard ls heads are good up to about 400 hp. There's a good ls turbo thread on the forced induction forum I'd check out, I've learned a lot from there about our motors...

 

Pretty sure a ported and polished Ls head will still flow worse than a stock b16 or b18c head, so you're wasting your money doing that if you plan to turbo it anyways. Just build the bottom end and get a nice turbo and a tune. You will gain a lot more power by saving the money you would spend on a head and buying a top of the line turbo. Don't cheap out on tuning, and don't cheap out and use a safc. I'd suggest hondata s300 also. Good luck, car looks awesome.

 

well, since he lives in cali and its already been said that he can't do an ls/vtec, and he doen't want to swap, i'd say he's set on using his ls motor. as far as the bottom end goes, look in the ls/turbo thread, as stated above, and there are plenty of people pushing 400 hp with a stock ls. cams would be helpful, but not necessarily a must. not sure what kind of power you are looking to get, but to me, 400 hp is a pretty good number. 300 would be a little cheaper of course and both are very attainable with an ls/turbo setup.

 

hey guys i really appreciate all the help on this ls project, as far as port polish head, brian crower cams, cam shafts, what kind of valves, valve springs and fuel injectors does everybody suggest for best top end non-vtech b18b1 bfore going turbo? wow i thought the tint was unique i guess i'll take it off lots of people thought it looks nice goes with the color well, lol oem i meant in the paint is original with no accidents well maintained all itr interior was done by me, the previous owner was pushing 476whp and 323 lbs of trg, keep it well
thanks again and other cosmetics that is terrible?
hope not

 

btw you guys are full of information how did everybody here gain so much knowledge on honda and acura? crazy

 

this what she used to look like from the previous owner i bought it from 3 months ago
fully built jdm gs-r with full race turbo
476whp
323ftlbs tg

 

i got some big shoes to fill with out vtech

 

I think ur teg looks pretty good. I also think that you should keep the tint if you like it and not be so mainstream. It makes it unique lookin, and not so much in a bad way. Good luck with the build

 

lol i meant the paint being oem all original no dents accidents nothing vin#'s all around ....
but looking to make a strong turbo LS can u help

 

my brother arranged tuning with jason parks for me.. so really dude dont build the b18b1 top end? leave stock and stroke, re sleeve and build block? very healthy 60 k LS engine what parts for best results in the bottom end dept?

hey thanks for the response not that i cant do lsvtech i want to use my non vtech motor without vtech, what cams do u suggest? damn dude im all show and no go right now SUCKS!
