B18C Project Turbo Motor Build Up
Alright,
I just purchased a bare B18C JDM GSR Block... I have a few questions. Ok, in the long run I want to turbocharge the motor. Some of the other plans I want to do with the block is bore it to 87mm and resleeve it with golden eagle sleeves, and get the Crower Stroker kit from 1.8L-2.26L... I was reading into it though, and I heard that if you plan on turbocharging your car it is best to keep the GSR crank... And just bore it out. And then boost it? What is the best way to going with this... What I think is that the stroker kit would be a lot better? Please help. Thank you...

K.I.S.S
87mm + boost = bad idea
stroker kit + boost = why bother
Do it with success like everyone before you has. 81-84.5mm GEM/AEBS/RS/Darton sleeves with the stock stroke crank. Crower/Pauter/etc. rods. JE/Arias/Wiseco pistons. AEM EMS or Hondata controlling 440+cc/min injectors. T3/T04 turbo of some type. Yada, yada, yada....300+whp.
The search button is your friend.

you don't need that...you'll never see the gains on the street.
just go with something like darton sleeves at 83mm and be happy
AND DON'T KNIFEDGE your crank. it's worthless.
just get a GOOD turbo setup, and GET IT TUNED and then move on from there.

If you're dead set on an 87mm bore, get an H22 
Do you even know what K.I.S.S. means? (And no, I'm not refering to the legendary rock band
)

Well in the end I want my car to be a show car pushing around 500-600hp w/ Turbo... And I don't need to bore it over that much to get that much power...
