wheres the experts?
Whats up, Heres the deal, I bought my 95 honda civic from a guy that put alot of work into it, BLack widow kit, Enkei Rims, halo projectors, the whole deal...but the bad part...the engine..He boosted the stock civic DX engine ( a NO NO)! lol...so basically what i have to work with is, it'll be used pretty much daily driven, i have a garrett stage 1 turbo, with intercooler and BOV, my current engine smokes, but i cant seem to pinpoint the problem, maybe high compression. I have 2 questions, anything i can do to make this motor i have now quit smoking? Btw, The turbo has a manual boost controller, which i already turned all the way down. I only want to preserve this engine long enough for me to save enough for what my second question is.....ive been looking at completel swaps for awhile now, b18c5? hrmm i dont really know that much in that area...maybe someone can help me out...i already have the turbo, just looking for the best motor set up. thats going to run the most boost safely....maybe the b18c1 would be a good choice but if so, what would be the base internals i would have to replace? any help would be appreciated..thank you....

How so?
And a few tips for you:
1. Don't make threads in all caps.
2. Use punctuation and create new paragraphs when you're typing.
3. Your car is gay.
4. You probably are too.
5. See #3

Well, if you didn't come off as such a stunna then maybe we'd be nice to you. Think about it.
1. Brand new member, so probably has something stupid to say.
2. Confirms #1 with this thread.
3. Can't post a complete sentence and doesn't show any knowledge or experience with creating a legible message.
4. Has to post pictures of his car with his thread, showing it off to us thinking that we'll idolize it.
5. Car looks like something from Pimp my Ride.
Seriously man...give me a break here.
