I will get a hatch and im thinking of turbo b-16 hatch 96+ what do you think i should do ? ( i have 10,000)

What kind of pistons,rods, etc,etc should i get ? ( i plan on hitting 12's or less)

After the motor with the turbo is all built what would be good to buy after to keep my car reliable as a daily driven car ?

 

Reliable = stock Honda Civic. If you have 10k then you should have enough to buy the car and do the engine swap, and that's about it.

Also, maybe you should say you WANT to run 12s rather than PLAN since you don't have any kind of plan.

no i have 15,000....pretty sure that the ek hatch isnt gunna be anymore than 5,000 by the time i get it in a few months...

 

Oh I C.

Sounded like you had 10k for the entire project. Look at it this way...

$5000 -car
$2000 -minimum for good b16
$3000 -sleeving, rods, pistons, etc
$3000 -minimum for good turbo setup
$850 -lsd (would be nice but not entirely necessary)
Rims, tires, springs, struts, etc?

I'm sure you can get into the 12s on your budget, but you need to do some research and figure out exactly what you want and need. I don't think anybody is going to make you a step by step list of what you need to do what you want, and if you go solely on what some person says, you won't know if they are giving you good advice if you aren't familiar with what parts are out there and what they do.

 

But if your gonna spend the money on a built motor...you might as well get your self a Motec.

EMS baby or hondata 2b.

 

$3000 -minimum for good turbo setup
