As the topic shows that is my new project, I will be obtaining this car tommrow and putting that engine in it, going to build the engine from the ground up and i am quite excited about it, i own the acura hayes manual for the car, only the b18 engine part.. hah worthless, does anyone have a service manual like pdf for building the b18a1 engine along with the civic ins and outs?

I plan on turboing this ls engine to roughly 10-15 psi a good 1 bar, along with using hondata s300 as fuel management, and obviously its a 5 speed, along with attempting to eliminate everything non essential in the car and do the tucked wires in the engine, with possibly trunk mounted battery.

should take a good while on the project, im just courious if anyone has access to these manuals which i could get from you.


The idea is a really custom car, the semi goal is sub 10k invested , i would be doing probably 99% of the work on my own as i would love the experience, and such..

Please let me know if anyone has any ideas turbo vs non turbo.. the turbo is way more fun
