Ok guys,I got a b18c1 in my 99 si,only 45k on the motor,now im gonan race this season at englishtown....I know my motor has potential, but is it better to jump into the turbo class,or i have a better chance building an all motor beast.....like n/a wise is the gsr almost the top in the class....cuz if i go into na class,i wanna know the chances i have compared to turbo....o and also is n/a with nos or its just all motor without nos...thanks

PS: sorry for all mistakes,

 

hmm

 

Wrong forum buddy.

 

You want to go boost.

I can see it in your eyes.

 

I think perhaps you should check out what the class rules are and if you'll be competitive period. If you're just doing brackets or racing for fun... do either. Boost = NA.

 

its gonna take alot of $$ to be competetive either way, but w/ a b series in a coupe you better go boost.

 

the force is strong with this one...baha sorry i didnt sleep too much last night

choose a class you are interested in competing in, look at other cars in the class, you be the judge if you can be competitive in that class.

 

all motor turbo ftw

with nitrous and a supercharger. solid rocket fuel!

 

turbo is the ONLY way man...lol

 

I thought this was a TECH forum, not a emotional support forum. Pick your own goals, then we can help fine-tune a setup you decide on.

 

considering we are in the forced induction forum... turbo baby!!!!!!

 

go turbo, Vband the compressor outlet to your mouth.

 

um.

boost u gain more power.. and NA cost a crap load just to get power.. every 300 u spend u might get 3 hp +/- well i boost.. and boost happy u should be too

 

yea id think youd be better competing in turbo. the reason being is that the majority of the competitors in all motor class are either going to be k series or h series (i would think) and be putting down higher numbers and more torque, and im assuming you dont want to gut your chassis.
i know a guy whos spent over $9k on his all motor (aebs sleeves, 85mm 14:1 cp pistons, carillo rods, port and polish, etc) and hes only putting down 235ish whp, he is going to put itb's on and hope for 260ish whp. but ive spent around $9k on my motor as well, and it will handle 600+whp. whereas you can spent $4000 and under and get 400ish+ whp with a boosted setup.
if you had a hatchback and it wasnt your daily driver, i would say do all motor. but since you have a coupe and it seems like its driven often, youd have to stay 11.5:1 compression or lower if you were doing all motor and youd only make around 200-220ish whp assuming you had all supporting mods. i just dont think that 220whp is enough to move anything other than a half gutted hatch down the track fast enough.. *puts on flame suit*
