I'm going to be building up a b18 and then boosting.. just wondering what type of pistons i should use to help me gain the most power? i'm also thinking about doing cams too and im not quite sure which kind will help me get the biggest gains.. thanks

 

i dont know anything about aftermarket internals, but so when someone who does comes in here thinking about helping ill ask this for him:

what are you building for? autox? street? or just another 500 whp build for nothing but track?

(edit) what are your power goals?

 

<u>MOVED to Forced Induction...</u>


Are you running stock sleeves?? Without any kind of information, its really tough to give youa good answer....

Look into a nice set of billet pistons, JE's have always done me well, so I can recommend those with a smile. How much power do you plan on making?

 

i really would like to make a drag car.. but i will also be daily driving it too... i guess i would be happy with about 300 whp..

 

You can easily achieve 300whp on a stock LS/VTEC if you want. What's your budget for this setup?

My suggestion:
-GSR head
-ITR cams
-adj cam gears
-ARP headstuds

simple turbo setup and you have 300whp all day long....if you have E85 available, you can make even more power

 

i already have a ls motor so i just want to add on to that.. just want some suggestions on some decent pistons and cams

 

It depends what compression you want, but i would go w/ CP 9.8:1 (SC7016) and Eagle rods

 

300 is a pretty modest goal.
