how does a b18c5 compare to a b18c when a turbo is introduced??

im a civic guy but u itr guys seem very knowledgeable......i heard turbocharging an itr engine in my civic would be a waste of money considering that tha compression is too high....where as the b18c is perfect for a tc

help, comments, corrections are greatly appreciated

well the B18C1 does have lower compression which is better suited for an FI application and the B18C5 does have higher compression which is not a good combo with an FI application. But you can always swap the pistons for lower compression pistons. Hope this helps.
