yeah i been searching here for over an hour ......
these are the questions i have not found a good answer to.

*what are the weakest links when boosting a stock b16 or b18c?
do you have a constant fuel pressure on when going FI?
i dont understand the specs of a turbine...t3 t4 drag 3, 4 tao60-123 ect
if you dont lower your compression ie 10:1 on a b16 is tuning a problem?

lol ok last one
are stock honda heads good for 10+ psi ? 300 hp?

i been searching all day, and everytime i find a decent topic where i think i may learn somthing, everyone disses on the thread starter with "use the search feature noob" ect ect

some1 point me to a good FI site where i can learn more

THANKS !

 

your in the right website.! at the wrong time.
the weakest link to all honda motors are the ring glands on the stock cast pistons...
Fuel pressure is constant. you can either drop in a walbro 255lph that Viren sells, or a MSD inline pump. tyhey cost about $149 you can get them in here for about $99-$120.
turbine and turbo stuff... you can go to http://www.turboneticsinc.com it would take too long for me to list everything.
the Japs love hi compression turbo. lots of people on this board run with stock B-sereis motors.
300 HP is easy with the stock Honda HEAD... now that is a strong point of HONDA. VTEC

your awesome dude!
that didnt take long, and no flaming either.....HT

 

stick around h-t and you will learn...........a lot.

 

I'd say you're on the best website to learn about Turbo Hondas...

 

yeah ive been on for over a year....im only asking cuz im ready to buy my long awaited C5, but im thinking a boosted b16 would put more hp to the ground......after uh almost 5 hours of reading on countless threads and other websites....im kinda leaning away from it after all this reading

 

I have a b16 what do you want to know? What is your goal? Check out my sig.

 

it seems like a decent setup would run about 3-4 grand just for parts...not including a 1400$ s200 for an ob2

and damn i was looking at prices for manifolds, wtf 800 bucks seems to be average

 

you can fidn a decent manifold, for example max rev, for around 320 or less, correct me if im wrong. Or even a used DRAG if you are on a budget.

 

could i get a decent setup pushing 9psi for 3000? im not so sure about these "bolt on kits" maybe have someone build a kit for me?

ahhh i need to read more.....im guna hold off on the c5, cuz a b16 putting 250+ to the ground sounds niiiiice

i just dont know my FI setups as of now

 

I hear clubsi is much better though.

 

Its a great place if you want to learna bout 5.0s, WRXs, and F-Bods...seriously.


As for the original poster...IMO you need to define EXACTLY what you are planning on doing with your car, and make a realistic decision on what will be the best way to get yourself there.

Is this for a daily driver with only a little racing? This will probably result in you doing something different then if youre planning on using the car mostly for weekend racing. Let us know what you are going to use it for and someone here should be able to help you decide what is best for you. I garauntee that someone here has done just about anything you could think of to do to a Civic.

"need an INFORMATIVE website on FI"

https://honda-tech.com then click "Forced Induction"


I gotta give praise to all the members that give good advice here... I never really post anything much here because (simply put) I don't know much... so I just jumped the gun at a chance to finally post in the forced induction forum... muahahahah..........................ha
