i have a egay 'xs power' turbo kit for my B18c4, what boost can i run bieng able to give it a caning with std internals??

 

B18c4? what the hell is that, never heard of it before

But anyways most b18c engines have about a 300whp limit where things start to break slowly after that

 

I got the engine from a UK only Civic 1.8 VTi (sir = Vti over here), iv read they have the strongest block of the B18's?

 

Wow never heard of those before!

We have vti civics around where I live too but they're still only 1.6L

 

It is the european GSR engine 1,8L 169HP, we only have it on a sedan or wagon here.

 

B18C4 is a Euro spec 1.8 dohc vtec and im sure its equivalent to the GSR. It comes in the boxy shaped euro vtec's.

What the engine can take depends on the setup & tuning on an FMU i wouldnt run more than like 8psi. Maybe with tuning u could push the stock block to like 12 psi. It really all depends on the tuning.
BUT what matters is also what turbo u are running 12psi on a T4 would blow your engine and you to bits, but 12psi on a T25 would only tickle that engine.
so whats your setup???

 

theres a bunch of b18, there is a b18c3, a b18c7 i think.

 

i ran 7 psi on mine with my gsr stock in a crx with xs-power turbo and manifold and i was going 11.7. There is a video if you do a search...10:1 compression and a low boost can still make good power on a gsr. That motor loved boost but i cracked the ringlands on 13 psi.

mines a t3/4 it says on the box .

Again im running total stanard internals etc, link me to tht vid if u can.

This really depends on how good your tuning is
