i got a all motor b16 93 hatch running 11.3 getting old.
i wana do a turbocharger set up, but im not sure which motors would take the turbo the best and which i could get the most power from. im hearing b18c has too high compression. ls motors would blow up over 12lbs boost.
any suggestions on which motor to get thats best for turbo, and keep in mine i wana run 15-18lbs or so and i dont mind working the motor to make it happen.
thanks for the help

if you dont mind building the engine to make it work.. then any engine would work, but I think a b18c1 would be the best, or even c5, but thatll be a little more expensive.
If you get a b18c1 build it a little, get new pistons and rods.. lower compression, and itll be able to hold more boost.
