Default b18c in Station...!!

Hi.
I'm new to this board. I'm from Germany. At the moment im running a 94 Civic Hatch.
Next year I'm going to get a civic that's only euro spec. The factory is in england.
Its a stationwagon with the b18c1 engine. (In germany the number is b18c4 - but no differnce)
You can imagine that it's a real hard sleeper.
A guy i know is running the jr and hits around 270hp. Which is not bad I guess.
Over here the jr's are not streetlegal so almost noone actually runs them.
He can hook me up.
I was just wondering if theres anything u can do to run around 300hp with the jr??

300whp will be hard to acheive.

You'd have to buy an intercooler for it. The only one I know of for the JRSC is LHT and it runs $1000.

Your better off getting a kit if you want 300whp.

mmmm....that sucks. Thats I could get the SC to run 300whp.
What n/a mods should I start of with - before charging?
Thought about the DC 4-1 Header.
2.5" Exhaust.... what else?

Yea. The prob is that both turbo and jr ain't streetlegal over here. (Unless you put a whole lot $ in it for some certificate) The turbo just jumps right in your face when u pop the hood.... noone will find the charger, even if the check the engine.
Isn't the deal with turbos that they're only good for peak power...??

No, turbo isnt just for peak hp. If you size the turbo correctly for your application, it can do wonders.
