Alrite guys, Currently saving for my B18B

now Iam going to turbo it going for the Full-Race Honda Stage 1 (450 hp)
I was thinking also a Skunk2 Intake Mani, aem fuel rail, 550 injectors, pistons not 100% sure what kinda to get, iam aiming for 300-400hp, if possible a bit of help guys, iam looking to spend some money tonight and buy some parts for my soon to be car, or just save for the engine :D

 

pritty new to the car modding scene , but practice makes perfect, also help! been looking at the b18b turbo thread and it has alot of amazing setups, but Iam just not 100% sure. if you guys can help that would be great.

 

Some people make 300whp on stock b18b's, but most people make about 250-270whp. I wouldnt just jump into things, the way your going, your going to have to spend alot of money. I also dont see a b18b making 400whp without alot of work, You should consider a b18c.

Dont go buying stuff without having the motor. You should first get the motor, and put it in the car, that way you can test fit or at least know the measurements of the manifold, turbo and downpipe, etc.

 

first things first, get the motor and get it in the car, second, if you are sure u want boost, put the kit on a stock motor, Im making 246whp, stock b18b1 10 psi. If you want more later, build it, you can make 400whp on ls, u just gotta build it way strong cuz u need lots of psi for that much. + good headwork, + good drivetrain, + good turbo parts= lotsa $.

 

400whp isnt that much and can be achieved on a straight ls motor. i would personally go ls/vtec though since a vtec head stock flows better than a built ls head. if your goal is 400whp some rods/pistons and a good tune should get you there. i dunno where your from but jeff evans has tuned quite a few stock sleeved motors making over 400whp. i would say if you got the cash throw some 9:1 pistons in there maybe like .20 over with eagle rods, a stock b16/gsr head and a decent sized turbo and you should see your goal. im gonna build mine over winter for 500whp stock sleeves. then again i can reuse alot of my current turbo parts so ill be saving a good bit of money right off the bat. g/l with your build

 

thanks for the feed back guys, well honestlty 250 break would do to start, the shell is on its way next couple of weeks, then engine next month, and turbo well thats a bit more but a few more months, so all in i have the money and i have a mate who runs one of the best tuning places in the UK so it will be getting tuned there

 

OK guys, iam going to get my shell then engine, now i would like to know what improvments i can make to engine b18b, and with those improvments what kind of psi i can run 10+ i.e 15 etc. would be a great help, thanks

 

yea you can definately just put the turbo kit on the stock motor. i had a motor with 200k miles and had it boosting 10-11 psi, or between 240-260 horsepower and it lasted about a year for me, but that was near 25 to 30k miles

 

brilliant, this motor would have 30k on the clock, so u know, iam looking for 15psi boost, what upgrades to engine? valvetrain? pistons? any help would be appreciated.

 

psi doesnt make power... your powerband really depends on the setup and parts you have in the end...

 

well it would be a b18b with full race turbo kit 540hp, so not sure what kinda numbers that would kick out.

 

honestly, just toss on an aftermarket intake manifold on there. it will help keep your torque up in the rpm range without you having to take the motor apart

 

mmmm ok, but on a stock engine what kinda hp can i expect out of the b18b with a fullrace stage 2 turbo 540hp, would that put me into my 300-400's? i have 550cc inj lined up would u recommend them? as said before any information on reaching my goal would be amazing. thanks Guys H-T love!
