Ok im new to hondas. now I have desided to build up a 92 hatch. Im looking at buying a b18b its out of my friends car. Now i want to do this project the right way. i want to turbo and run it between 300-400hp. I have searched but alot of this is technical and im not understanding alot of it.
So im wanting input on what you guys think??
Im looking at going ls-v and running turbo. Is this a smart choice? And i need to buy a new tranny what should i go with? gsr itr?
Thanks for all your help ahead of time!!

as far as tranny, of coarse if you can go itr(expensive and hard to find). but b16 tranny has similar gearing and is usually cheaper and easier to find.

as for the b18b, ls-vtec turbo is good, should expect good HP. just take your time with the build. build it right and get all the knowledge you can and you should hit your goal.

edit: by the way don't title your topics with "HELP". there is no urgency in this thread.

sorry but im kinda wanting to finish this asap. I will remember that next time.
Now as for wiring into a 92 hatch... difficult or not? And any specific internals anyone recomend. Sorry for the spelling... just got home from a 20 hour shift... sucks but hey the cash helps these kinda projects.

Thanks Again!

the wiring for the vtec is not hard.
this link helped me: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1171263

as for internals. how much do you want to spend? since you want to turbo remember a low compression engine is the way to go. do your research. go to the turbo forum and see what they are using and what type of advice they recommend.
