Whats up guys,

ive been researching around, i have a 95civic .. and eventually.. im going to have the urge to boost.. i originally was going to purchase a K20A & boost it.. but after looking on how much it would cost me.. i have no desire on spending 10G's+.

So i have narrowed my choices down to two motors..

B18C1

or

B18C5

which do you guys think would be the best motor to boost?

Keep in mind before i do the swap i will be changing the pistons/rods/rings

Thanks

b18c1 and please search, this has been beaten to death.

you can boost an ITR motor just fine... it's all in the tune man

pick up a k24 and boost that
then put a k20 head on it later?

mint alright thanks guys

92slowcivic - my bad man i'm still new here as u can see


i heard that when you boost an ITR, they give u alot of problems later on, alot of internal work needs to be donee

its a super high compression motor

A lil 2.3l action

you can boost the itr like dangthemang said its all in the tune, but there alot more to compromise boosting the itr, the itr is pretty expensive and to amazing to risk blowing up.... my best friend and i built a b18c5 stock with just a cometic head gasket and blox manifold with an amazing turbo setup and an amazing tune from a local guy and it was a high 11 second car
