b18cTurbo

just install my greedy turbo kit made for the gsr in a civic 2k coupe powered by a b18c5(type r )mmmmm i love it
just raced againt my competitor gsr greedy friend and beat it by about 3 car in a 1/4 mille aprox!!!i have no intercooler but i have msd the gsr dont have msd but have an intercooler we where at the same amont of boost stock 8 psi and our car weight about the same to so conclusion a type r turbo is more powerfull then a gsr

maxim

If you think that's something, try an ls motor instead of your expensive typeR motor.

SagaGSR

just be glad that this is a honda forum and not a english grammar one

whats up mike! Fred told me everything on the phone Happy for you bro....can't wait to see the final result.

Why, so he can have a slower car? I think you'll find an ITR faster than an LS with the same turbo kit

Of course, he sounds surprised the ITR was faster than a GSR so who knows ...

get an intercooler and your hp will boost up 20-30hp and you'll really whip your buddy. compressed air gets hot.

Etylorcen

Wow yours sounds better than the Greddy? I thought the Greddy kit was good but damn! Greedy all the way.

b18cTurbo

also i forgot when i race him i had no primary oxygen sensor so the ecm signal was way to rich or *** top
the gsr 1/4 mille was 13.80 on ra1 toyo whit a 2.1 0¨60ft so i guess i can do 13.6 whit no intercooler on street tire

Do some research..you will find that the B18b is not only lower compression than a B18C5(turbos don't like high compression engines), but larger displacement as well. Oh, an no vtec.

FAST94GSR

maybe you yourself should do more research. vtec will always make more power than ls even if it has more displacement. A type R turbo is a great combo, they average around 280 to the wheels.

maxim_force~~ You are kidding right??

I have owned a TURBO LS and a TURBO TYPE R. My R would kick the living crap out of my LS.

Almost everything you posted was incorrect. Please dont miss inform people with bad information.

I have owned both cars, so I am actually speaking from experience.

SagaGSR

maximum force- the b18b and b18c5 have the same displacement hence the 18 in the name of the motor (1.8 liter)

maxim

Never had the intention of misinforming anyone in fact it sounds like some of you are misinformed by your sources.

FastGSR94: Ever been in an FI car when vtec kickes in, no where did I say that a non vtec car put more or less power than vtec.

SagaGSR: techinically the LS has more displacement(B18b = 1.834 vs. B18c1 and c5 = 1.797). They are not the same.

MikVtek Is a french speaking guy... and so i, so please don't diss the way we write, we're doing our best.

Maxim force, Shut up ang go get a Turbo.

I'm the guy with the GSR Turbo Greddy that raced MikVtec Tonight... His car's fast already without intercooler... Mike, enjoy cause you won't be ahead of me for a long time!!! BTW, i did 13.56 at the track.
Here's my Geeser.

hey fred good to ear you i know it wont take long before you kik my *** but anyway for now its happyness

Anthony K

meanteg,

Nice intercooler.

meanteg

Thanks!

Mike, i can't wait to see what the IC and the 3" exhaust will do for your car. Damn this thing will be fast.

xxplosif1

whats up guys!?

maxim_force: The LS engine is a good engine for FI, but VTEC engine also bro. The LS is just more....boost friendly. Technicaly i guess the LS would accept more boost than any other VTEC engine, stock vs stock of course.

The LS engine is a 1.8 just like the type R, but its still a bit bigger. It's 1834cc compare to the GSR or type R that are something like 1795cc (not exactly a 1.8 liter) The LS will always have killer low end torque under boost just like the B20Z, but the VTEC motors will have a killer top end, and this is where the B18B will get spanked.

I would still prefer a fully built B18B or B20Z turbo, but thats my opinion! I need low end torque to have fun

And yeah, mikvtec, meanteg and myself are french canadians from Montréal, please don't laugh at us! laugh with us! LOL

later

PM-Performance

good job bro. . . not much of a suprise , but good job.
im trying to get mine boosted for next year too.
great job man , , and get that intercooler.

InfamousDX

maxim: shut down

PROFILES2000

what are the dementions on this intercooler is it a custom job? or is it liek spearco apexi greddy blah blah blah
i like it a lot

cyan1de

the b18b will always have TORQUE, which VTEC seems to lack.

b18cTurbo

im having slight detonation at hight rpm so i need to retard a bit checked plug but sounds ok but if i dont retard about 3 deg i ear noise in the top rpm 8000 to 8600 range im still waiting for my cooler that maybe will resolv the prob stay tuned!

meanteg

It's a custom made intercooler that i bought from the tuning shop i work for, Trac Racing, http://www.tracracing.com The core measures 33" x 8" x 3". MikVtec is also gonna use one of our IC's very soon.

Don't tell me to do some research - you should do some research and talk to the guys runing 10.5 and up with turbos and see if they are beating LS's.
