Help with my install
I am going to be installing a b18b1 in my civ hatch 93 and have a quick question. In about a year I will be putting a turbo on this beast and need to know if I should do any mods to the engine that will be easier while the motor is out instead of waiting to do it all after it is installed? I am just trying to prepare for the turbo and try and make it as easy as possible thanks.

Re: Help with my install (red_hatch92)
Yea I figured that much what weight of flywheel should I get I heard that with turbo applications a really light one is not good but I should get one that ways around (10-12) pounds. Also what setup of flywheel and clutch in your opinion is the best?

Do yourself a favor and get a better intake manifold now too. It's not murder to get it on once your engine's in place, but it's about 10x easier with it out.
Aside from that, definately get a clutch and flywheel (flywheel about 10 lbs or heavier), you might want to look into "Phantom Grip LSD" for your tranny too. B18C5-EH2 runs one in his car (he's this forum's moderator) and he has nothing but good things to say about it.
And take off your power steering: a B18B hatchy definately doesn't need it .

add new pistons and all new internals, but i heard the b18 is a good motor to turbo stock, so is the d16y8, good luck
