D to B series turbo kit
I want to boost my stock d15b before i boost the b18c1 that I am putting in so i was going to just buy the greddy sohc kit and put it on. i was wondering what will need to be changed when im ready to put the turbo onto the other engine.i know i would probaly upgrade the turbo, injectors, and ive heard i would have to change the manifold so if someone could just help me out with this info it would be a great help
P.S. i searched but couldnt find any info

Re: D to B series turbo kit (JA_EH94)
The 15g greddy manifold wont fit your B18c1....You would have to port match and redrill the holes on the mani....The Very small 15g is very well matched for the d series engine. However with increased displacement and higher compression of the B18c1, you will choke the hell out of your motor and the turbo will run way out of its efficiency and anything above 5k and the turbo will die off and you'll pretty much be making noise in that part of your powerband. However you will have good lowend, pretty instant spool.
I recommend you never put that small of a turbo on a b18c1. Its not matched for that kind of motor......If you want to stick with greddy, you need to get the 18g kit for the b-series engine.
Just my $.02

what he said is good advice. make the b series kit fit the d-series........
i'd buy a used manifold to hack up.....greddy manifolds are cheap, then you'd have a good one for when you drop in the GSR engine.

Re: (redzcstandardhatch)
Or get the b18 kit straight off and fab up one of those diy HF civic manifolds and run the turbo on the D15 while you can.... and polish that b18 manifold daily
