i have a 00 civic si, and it has a b16, really slow...and i was wondering if anyone knew the fastest way to go fast with my car, and at the same time not so much money...

 

buy my turbo kit.

 

true that, with a turbo set up ull get your: intake, header, manifold, exhaust spark plugs, other fancy things i cant think of, and a whole lot of fast. lol. thats only if u think 3,000 is cheap. i would save up n get it tho

 

Sell it. Buy a V8.


Or spend lots and lots of money.

 

i heard turbo kits on b16's arent so good cuz it's high compression

 

nah, V8 too much gas money

A b16 doesn't have that high of compression...

You can boost a stock b16, just tune conservatively and use 93 octane. Tons of people boost stock b16s without problems.

Oh, and the absolute cheapest way to get horsepower is nitrous. It's hands down the most bang for buck power adder.

I personally wouldn't go that route though, go with a nice turbo kit like PeakBoost and you will be much more happy in the end!! Boost is better!

not as bad for the motor as ppl think .. just use it wisely

 

get a crotch rocket - def fast and cheep for how fast they go j/p

Seriously turbo would prob be the cheepest for the most HP gain. Nitrous is cheep for the power you get but its only a boost when you want/need it.

 

give a budget to get realistic answeres

 

like a 1000obo

 

where can i check out the peak boost at?

 

you are not going to get a proper turbo setup for 1000 by the time its done.

so for 1000, i'd get an intake and nitrous, and if you already have an intake, then exhaust and nitrous.

 

get a nitrous system , but hey if you wanna run faster you have to pay the price....$$$$$$$

 

I/H/E + Nitrous. That can be done for $1000 if you squeeze.

 

yea, but i dont even have to go turbo, like u know wat type of setup is good for my car? n/a

 

Ebay intake, then get your nitrous, and if you have money left over you can use that towards exhaust. That is what I would do if that was my goal.

 

i have a 2000 civic si and its not that slow.. I beat a gtp

 

my car doesnt have much torque...i want more torque

torque = b20

you could prolly buy the block for 500$ and re-use your b16 head and tranny

 

b20 or lsvtec, and get itr cams, and u wont even spend the full grand if u go to the right shop(s)

 

Turbo it, you can do it with a 1000 invested in used parts. http://www.homemadeturbo.com/forum/

You could go nitrous for half the price but you wont be fast all the time.

torque = K24

but yea I know he is workin w/ B-series. B20 is pretty much the only B w/ any torque, relativly speaking.

 

I see youre in el monte, im in SEM. Anyways, get basic bolt ons and nitrous.
