Default B16a1 Build help *few Q's pls take a look"



k i have a b16a1 with tranny thats going in a 90 crx dx(b18 was waaaay to much for me lol)

so this is the help i need.

1. should i go with a stand alone ECU or piggyback, price is an issue but if its going to make a huge difference i would pay more for stand alone, keep in mind its a turbo app, running 12 psi to start.

2. i need a good place to buy internals... pistons w/ rings, rods, valves, springs everything, it would be great if i could get it all at one place.

3. need to know if upsized injectors will be enough for eventualy 15-20 psi boost or i should add extras. any other fuel system tips would be helpful as i dont know to much in that department.

other tips would be great too, as this is gona be my first swap ive done myself, ive built engines and have a bunch of general mechanics knowledge and the equipment but i need help.

thanks for your help in advance.

Search + forced induction forum, you'll get a lot better answers over there. For 12PSI you're definitly going to want to go with a standalone. I dont understand what you're asking about the injectors, do you want to know which ones you can buy now that will give you good fuel at 12PSI and then also give enough when you up the boost?
