just putting a jdm b16a into my 95 hatch.... already have i/e and plan on headers.... just looking for input on where to go from there... im thinking something computer wise... ill be runnin the jdm ecu from the swap, so maybe upgrade to a chipped ecu? or a vtec controller... any input is fine

95jeremie

build for NA or boost
pick one and go to town

btk2334

i was thinkin na i mean i love turbo but i just feel like trying na... just seeing what a common next step is

95jeremie

NA is expensive
to pull good power you need great parts all working together
can't slack

A chipped ECU and a good tune afterwards will do you fine methinks.

btk2334

yeah i will probly go with a tune and see where i am at when the dust settles.. i upgraded my brakes and got new coilovers so i may do some more work on my suspension set up

To complete the "breather" mods, go with a cam...then get a tune!

Oh & A LSD GSR/R Tranmission Would Be Good If You Dont Already Have One..

95jeremie

^^^^ the man with the plan

btk2334

i have the jdm lsd sir2 tranny... but yea i was def lookin into cams

hoo my gosh

out of curiousity, what header do you plan on going with and what intake do you have and what are you goals

btk2334

still not sure what header im gunna go with if nybody has any suggestions, but the intake is costum built similar to an aem, but a friend of mine has an uncle who works with metal so we gave him the aem and he made a replica except it didnt cost 200 bucks.... and by way of goals... i dont really have any its my every-day driver so im not taking it to a track or making a show car... but i want decent performance and im too mechanically fidgety to leave anything stock

bmoua

what kind of suspension are you running? Do you have a good rim/tire combo? Brake setup? I'd consider upgrading all of these things if you haven't yet.

if it were me, i'd go with a gsr bottom end and throw in some itr cams and then tune. its fairly stock and reliable but you get the torque of the 1.8 and some decent high end power. That should tie you over for awhile

try to stay on topic, mmkay?

btk2334

yeah yeah.. i may just try to work the b16 block... i may go boost later but still not sure so im not gunna invest in the b18, but as far as suspension goes i have a brembo brake set-up (cross-drilled) and skunk2 coils but i would say its still a work in progress

b16 tranny's fail.. sir or not.. but atleast its lsd i guess..

but yeah going "N/A" i would definatley look into cams & headwork..

take all the wasted money on bolt ons, and throw it into security. GPS tracking, Failsafe killswitches. 2 alarms and redundant everything.

thieves &gt; your boltons

btk2334
