why?

if you dont already have the motor, just buy a b18b, build the **** out of it, and save yourself 2000$

C5=naturally aspirated race engine
not meant for boost. and building one makes it a waste of money to buy one.

Or you might as well grab yourself a GSR motor and boost that. You'd also save a butt load of cash.

Im in the uk and gsr's are very very hard to come by! id have more chance getting a b18c5! I can get a complete engine,tranny and engine loom including everything on the engine like starter,alternator. intake/exhaust manifold and downpipe, injectors! everything i would need for a swap for like a £1000 ($2000) i think this is a good price! low mileage too
