Default What should I do to a B16 Hatch?

I am getting a Honda hatchback most likely a 93-95 and I am going to do a b16 swap in it! What are some things I should put on it I do not want naturally aspirated. I am thinking turbo tell me what else I can do to it.

instead of doing something to the b16 why don't you just get a b18c (type R) engine. It'll be just as fast as a modified b16 if not faster and it will have more torque and have the good old honda reliability.

Man.....why do I live in Louisville?!?!

Search bro...might want to read the rules too.


Just turbo your d series that will be in it. You can piece together something really cheap. Go to amens (spelling) off bluelick road. its a salvage yard. Go to the honda crx's and grab you a HX manifold off there. 50$ but you gotta take it off. Then just get an adapter plate and a RHB5 off a mazda or probe....dirt cheap. i mean you still have fmu and IC pipes and other little things....but it's fairly cheap. go to http://www.homemadeturbo.com

It has a few writeups.

defintely turbo your d-series. unless you buy an si and in that case you start out with a B16. anyways, buy a block saver, take it to a machine shop and get it welded in and the block and head milled, then go check on ebay for d-series turbo mainfolds and kits or just buy a d-series kit from turbonetics or APEX'i. Oh and while your getting the machine work done throw in new forged interals, and replace the valve springs and cam. replace the various fuel items and then run like 14 psi of boost. that should be like 300hp, from a single cam. but seriously, build a d-series.
