i was searching for poorman itr boosted setups and i found nothing, all the posts are in eg/ek thread. is this a bad setup for boost or something?

anyone have any numbers?

anyone even running this combination?

thank you

 

On 10psi I made 320hp 255ft tq b16 head b18c1 84.5mm bore.

 

may i ask management?

 

i like the torque for only 10psi,

anyone else running this or have anything to add about this combo for boosted applications?
pros and cons?

 

The difference in flow between a GSR and a B16 head is so minute that you probably arn't going to notice it in a FI application. It'll do you worse if you keep the B16 cams in the B16 head.

 

the reason im thinking about going this route is because i already have the b16 head

 

and im also after the bigger stroke of the 1.8 block

 

Well I have this set up in my delsol yet to be tuned yet but there is one on the hondata website that made 405hp at 18 psi.

 

right now with my built b16a2 im making 365 whp, 255 trq at 14 psi.

as posted above, 15psi of fun is making 255 trq at 10 psi.

im just looking for numbers and any other comments on this setup.

 

ill have to check that out, thank you.

 

any more numbers guys? so from my current setup, ill for sure gain power, right?

 

will my numbers definately be higher with the bigger block? assuming same turbo setup, same turbo manifold, same intake, same 14 psi, just bigger block? how much more power? if that can be answered

 

I would assume if nothing else you'll atleast gain some torque.

 

ok cool, i would hope so.

 

I'm running this setup.

Made 335whp 255lbs/ft torque at 14-15psi.


I still have b16cams and b16 IM, and they are both killing me. I stop making power at 7000rpms.

I'm also running a turbo that's kind of small. Precision sc50.

My 2 cents.

 

i see, what cams do you plan to run?

 

680 whp at 26 lbs. boost.
B18C1 block 84 mm bore
B16 head/JG turbo cams


But a lot of other things playa part of that as well. I.E turbo, intake manifold, etc.

this might be a dumb or weird question, but lets say with a b16a2 motor you stopped making power at 8k rpm. then you switched out the b16a2 block for a b18c1 block. would the power stop sooner or make more power at a higher rpm? everything else is the same.

 

damn obviously cams help out alot. for 26 psi, those seem like very good numbers

I could tell you right out, because before the b18c1 I HAD a straight b16a2, running the same compression same turbo and everything, and it made 298whp 213lbs at around the same boost level. The thing though, was that power was going up all the way to 8500rpms.
Once I swapped the blocks out the b18c made more power and torque, but it could no longer breathe at the high rpms like the b16 did. The b16 cams are just not matched well to the b18c bottom end. GSR cams and a JG Intake manifold would probably land close to a 60whp gain on my setup, if not more.

 

i see what you mean, this is the stuff i have been wanting to know, the b16 cams cant really handle the bigger stroke of the 1.8 block. thanks man

 

any more numbers or helpful info?

 

anyone else with this setup
