Default Whose got a good b16a recipe??????

HEY


I own a 1990 honda civic with a stock d15b2... aka shitty motor. I am thinking of ordering in a jdm b16a. I want do do a complete build up of the motor but cant find any recipes for some good horse power. Im also going to put 18 psi of boost through it so i have to lower the compression ratio a bit. ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE GRRREAT!!! I'm mainly into muscle cars and when i beat friends they say its not fair(all in imports) so i wanna build an import and show em ill still win
haha thanks

How can you decide you are going to run 18 psi? How did you come up with that number?

I totally agree with this. Depending what the use of the car will be for, 18psi may not even be necessary. If you are thinking of boosting to 18 psi on a stock bottom, I sure hope that you are using some sort of stand-alone ecu and/or you have a good tuner. Also, plan on using 100+ octane gas.
