that wont be to hard to do then... if all your looking for is 250bhp

look into building your own "kit"

Like a log manifold turbo and down pipe, there are alot of companys on HT that make good manifolds that are cheap and reliable

just want to squeeze 250 at the very least because i dont want to do much work on the engine...... i kinda have my heart set on a turbo though and i want to run it pretty much on the stock engine with forged pistons..... checked out full race there and they seem to only cater for B18C, B18C1 and B18C5 engines......

i know the B18C1 is the equivenlent in terms of power to the UK spec B18C4 and it runs a GSR motor would a turbo for the B18C1 fit the B18C4 without modification to fit? its just i dont want to end up spending thousands on a turbo shipping it from the states only to find it doesent fit......

thanks

The C4 is the same as the C1 as far as anything you're going to do to it goes.
