808b18c1boosted

I need help again, last drags i ran a 13.3 1/4 on 7 psi boost. My second run i ran a 13.6 with smoke pouring out my exhaust. I suspect a broken ring land. Now its time for a rebuild on a budget. any suggestions for 10-15psi , will forged pistons and eagle rods do the job or will sleeveing be in order. thanks O yea does anyone have info or comments on golden eagle sleeves. good/bad experiences . thanks

i'm running 11psi on my stock b18c1 with NO problems.... you can run quite a bit of boost with the right amount of fuel/tuning. jason was talking about putting me up to like 13 or so psi but i didnt have a 3bar at the time....also, i could have run a lot more boost but i only had 440cc injectors. if you were to throw in some internals you could boost a lot more than 15psi, IMO.

eagle rods, cp pistons, and some machine work u can see 15psi daily no problem.

i got some 440cc i just took them out cause im running on three legs and all that fuel makes it a bitch to drive. what EMS are you using

its just an older hondata stage 3 system, i'll be upgrading to a newer hondata system soon though..

Get a better fuel system(say 720cc injectors, bigger fuel pump, etc, etc). If you really wanna play it safe without opening up the block for a rebuild. I'd suggest getting a thinner oem headgasket, an inlinepro, or cometic headgasket. With all the money you retain from sending your motor to a machine shop for a blockguard or balancing, I'd get a Hondata S200b and pay for some tuning. But hey just my $.02. With that setup you'll be more than happy, trust. Peace and Goodluck.

thicker headgasket works great...

First off,the amount of psi is not what makes a differnece for what your motor can hold. What kind of turbo are you running? whats the whp goal? you may only need pistons and rods, otherwise you may need sleeves also.
