2000 Ek Hatch build- Done, but far from it!
First off i would like to just say hello to everyone here!
Iv searched the forums here for years and now i finally decided to join. My car is a 2000 ek hatch with a 97 jdm h22a swap. Engine is basically stock with the exception of header, full 2.25'' exhaust, AEM CAI, and a tune. other notible mods include: k-sport coilovers, skunk 2 camber kit, Mugan racing seats, Type r front and rear lip, jdm yellow fog lights, carbon fiber hood and wing and more. For the past two summer's i have absolutely loved the car! I had a 1992 nissan 240sx with sr20det swap, and a 2001 honda prelude se in the past and both cars were not as much fun or as cheap and reliable to own as my civic. The car is absolutely in mint shape, 150,000 km's on the body and never been winter driven. Not even a spec of rust on the thing. Anyways back to the reason for this thread.... More power! The h22a is fun, as a lot of you guys would know. But i want to have more fun, a lot more fun!
So here's my thoughts on the direction i want to go next. First off i want to ditch the h22a, sell it for what ever ill get for it. Then i want to put in a b18b and boost it!! why u ask? because of a few things, dont hate just read my list.
1. Power steering again!
2. No axel binding when high speed cornering (number one reason is handling!)
3. less weight in the front of the car
4. Cheaper to build for boost
5. More reliable when boosted
6. Better transmission (no stupid cable tranny)
7. More Aftermarket Support
My Power goals are 300-350 hp. and my budget will be about 5k plus whatever i get from my h22a for everything. I want to make it a reliable build, as this will be my summer time daily driver. So far these are the things i think i will need. please let me know if i need other parts, and add to my list as well as suggest better or cheaper companies that will improve reliability.
-Axels and mounts or course since i have an h22a right now
-Ill need to patch the floor where the shift linkage will go (h22 uses a cable tranny)
-eagle rods
-weiseco pistons?
- crower cams, valves, retainers (stage??)
-acl bearings
-Better head gasket?
-what turbo is best? cheapest? im thinking a t-28 from a s14 silvia might work?
- ebay turbo piping
- ebay bov
- What transmission? Will the stock b18b tranny suffice? lsd?
-bigger radiator? i currently still use the stcok civic one with no problems with my h22
-what ecu? will a tunned p-28 work?
-what mounts?
- can i leave the block stock and still be reliable for the power i want?
-ebay intercooler?
thanks everyone! Please dont say use the search. I have been searching for a long time with lots of forums with ppl just giving advice and then arguing and never really finding the concrete answers to my questions.

Try the Forced Induction forum because you're asking the same (pardon me for saying) nauseating questions that get asked at least once a week.
Forced Induction
Superchargers, turbochargers, & related topics Naturally Aspirated Builds
Otherwise all you're going to get is more arguments in THIS thread like the others you say you're gotten.

Re: 2000 Ek Hatch build- Done, but far from it!
I Have been searching those threads for awhile now and i still haven't gotten all the info i need before digging into my new project. I really want a full list of all the parts im going to need to make this a reliable daily driver while achieving my hp goal. I want to know all the things i dont need to do as well so i can save some money rather then wasting it on parts that are not necessary. The threads iv looked at just dont answer all my questions thats why i posted.

I don't see how that's possible. You aren't the first person that wanted to boost a car and make "X" power. There are DOZENS of build threads for you to copy and get that parts list. I know this because that was the method i used when I was doing MY turbo build.

keep the h deuce and buy at h2b kit. h2b will make alot more power than a b18 with less mods. h22s are already sitting at 200+. you can easily reach your 300+ goal sticking with the h22

So again with my original post would a T-28 turbo from a s14-15 silvia be big enough to get my hp goal? with the b18b.

I can see you are going to refuse to do any research on your own. Does that turbo flow enough? Answer that question and you won't need anyone to answer it for you.
Yu should start by looking at this thread.
LST / LS-T Turbo B18A B18B setups
Everything you can imagine done to boost that engine has already been done. No need to ask a single question about it. Read.

How much does a T28 flow then?
I found this in 5 seconds on Google so I don't know where it is you're "researching".
http://www.sr20-forum.com/turbo/3137...25-t-28-a.html
But those are non-Hondas.

Why are you always such an ***? You literally sit on HT all of the time. I see you on sooooo many threads doing the same thing, telling every single person to search and criticizing everyone else's builds. WHY ARE YOU EVEN HERE? If your going to be such a douche, why dont you find something else to do with all of your time? /thread

Re: 2000 Ek Hatch build- Done, but far from it!
I guess furnishing links to the resources they cannot seem to find and trying to lead people to research for themselves is being a douche? NO one ever seems to remember that part.
Post #2. Re-read it. I tried to get him to read the right resources but apparently the OP wants it just handed to him. And unless YOU are going to answer any of his questions, you should have stayed OUT of it.
BOOST IS NOT SOMETHING YOU WANT SPOONFED TO YOU. If you knew anything about the subject you would know that. And don't tell us you searched when the questions you're asking scream that you didn't. I have 3 links in my sig alone that would have answered most of these questions.

Here's one where a 17 year old actually put together a solid parts list to start with.

Everyone else in the thread helped him fine tune it.
All found by doing a quick search.

Why join a forum and be doing a project without making a thread for it? I just wanted to hear some setups and idea's and opinions from people on what i have planned to do.

H2B with GSR trans and a 57 or 60 trim turbo kit from Spoolin all with in budget and will get you the goals you have. Plus H2B is fun and not as common.
