what to do next?
hey whats up I have a 92 hatch with a b16 motor. I have i/h/e .
i have 2.5 piping with a shetty magna flow muffler with a straight pipe.
my cars ecu is chipped with hondata with type r mapping. my car isnt tuned however.
also have a stage 2 clutch with a type r transmission.
i want to go turbo down the road. as far as how much boost, enough to make it fast and reliable.
so. my question is. what should i do ? im not gona buy everything at once. kinda buying things as i come across the money. any help would be sweet.
and for torgue i dont care for as much as my high end. so tips for buidling up my high end to the extreme.. cuz i like the gas mileage you know...
oh and to give you an idea on how my car is right now. i raced a b20 hatch i/h/e from 2nd gear and it was even till 4th and then he started pulling... thanks

no sense in dumping more money into the engine when you'll be boosting</TD></TR></TABLE>
x2.
But start browsing for deals on turbo parts now.
if you start now, over 5-6 months you can get a nice setup for ~$1000

Re: what to do next? (Agent_EM1)
okay kool man, ya i wanted to get the itr cams, i seen them on hmo. but, i was wondering if putting the cams in is something i could do with basic tools at my house. or do i need someone to help me or would i need other parts to install them. because their not just bolt ons right? my car needs to be tuned but i kinda wanna wait till i get boost then tune everything. would that be the right way to go? and would i feel any difference with these cams on my motor?

Honestly I would just hold off on the cams and the tune until you have your whole turbo kit and you are ready to install. Should should be able to make decent numbers on a stock B16-T. If you feel that you want more then you can start purchasing cams and get your engine work. Just what I would do. I wouldnt spend any extra money unless I had to.

Re: what to do next? (95ProjectEJ1)
okay, well there is a skunk2 right down the street from my house, is there anything that i should get from there that anyone recomends before i get the turbo? im not to familiar with turbos. which one could best suit a stock b16 motor. tell me the website. the price. again i want my head to be stronger and be able to rev higher. i think my peak is around 8000 as far as what i can feel.
im not gonna upgrade the internals of the block just the head. thanx
