Anyone in here with a b16 with 350 - 400 whp. what set up do you run? What is your 1/4 time? How much does it cost the build up? I'm planning to build my b16 so I want to know in advance. Thankz

I'm sure someone in here has this kind of money or crazy like me. lol.

 

Lisa Kubo... she uses a b16..

 

Thankz. Let me start doing reseach on her engine. As a matter of fact, she is going to be in houston for this weekend race. So will stop by and talk to her.

 

Just keep in mind that she uses all custom stuff to get her desired rod to stroke ratio..

350-400hp on a b16a can be made without changing the rs ratio. start with rods, pistons, sleeves, & aftermarket fuel management, then top it off with a nice turbo & large intercooler. a relatively simple setup like this in a hatch will definitely get you deep into the 11 sec. club.

 

Yes, that is correct.

 

just curious, is it b16a1 or 2?

 

I have a b16a. Yeah my goal is to run 11's. I have the money it's just a matter finding parts and know what works. What kind of axles do people use with this kind of hp?

on b16a this is what i would do first. send it to GE get it sleeved. probably 82 or 83mm bore nothing to wild. Then second thing i would do is get your head sent out to Portflow to get the valve springs and retainers done as well as good port and polish. use a equal length tubular manifold with a 60-1 t4 straight setup. either go with a speed pro,motec,haltech,dfi or hondata system which ever one is in your budget and your preference. Get around 1000cc injectors. Get a fuel system tht is capable to run that high hp.

For intercooller depening on what racing and what this car is used for. choose a large air to air for street/strip setup or go all out race wit ha water to air unit. If you run methanol which is allowd in mostclasses next year then all you would need is intercooler piping 2.5 inch will be sufficient. No need of intercooler then,.

For intake manifold get a Customer one done or wait for the JG edelbrock unit to come out should be couple weeks for b16a heads.

For Cams go with some b16a or type R cams

for suspension you need a good coilover setup with doublerebound option. GC makes a hell of setup in there advance design group.

You can either choose Mark Williams for axles he did the venom car. or go wiht JG setup, or Rob Moore of Moore performance or you can either go with less extreme stuff mentioned

Driveshaft shop stage 5 or go with Stage 4 sine you not making that much pwr.

Yea.. but that ain't no 1.6L

 

How about toda cams? Is it worth the money? I think they are like $700 but I rather spend the money and do it right.

 

a friend of mine had a turbo'd/b16 in his 4th gen 2 years ago. daily driven. approx 350 hsp to the wheels and ran high 11's. his motor was stock except for the inlinepro headgasket.

 

or you could do what b18turbo said and you will run 10's daily driven or low 9's in a race chassis.

11.9@107mph with my I/c pipes blowing off as soons as I hit 4th gear! Then caught a 1.67 60 ft time pipe blew off in 3rd gear 12.4@94mph, then 11.9@116mph pipe blew off at 1000ft mark! The pipes are getting welded tomorrow and back to the track on Sunday.
