hey everyone, this is the current build i have goin right now, is there anything else you guys think i need or might want to add?? Input is greatly appreciated..

GSR block, crank, rods
ITR pistons
ITR cams
AEM camgears
rocket motorsports valvesprings/retainers
edelbrock victor X manifold
ITR TB
AEM fuel rail/regulator
440 injectors
AEM shorty
DC 4-1 header
2.25 exhaust/high flow cat
hondata s200
GSR tranny with OBX diff

Anything else??

 

victor x - wait till you have a bigger engine
aem fuel rail and regulator- not needed
aem "shorty" -longer piping makes more tq and hp. short rams ftl.
2.5 would be a better size to go with on the exhaust, get a straight through muffler.

 

i agree on the victor X..ur IM should be good for now!

 

Civic Type-R crank pulley for the win

 

thanks for the replys, i know the victor x is more of a FI manifold but i got it for 120 bucks from a friend so i couldnt pass it up. Maybe ill sell it on ebay and get a different manifold suited more towards an all motor build.

 

the valvetrain is a bit of an over kill for the itr cams. But if you plan to upgrade the cams later on then it would be a good idea to upgrade while it is all apart

I have to agree with the other on the edelbrock IM, it is a bit too large for a mild all motor build

other than that your list looks great, just upgrade the size of the exhaust piping and you will make some good power

 

yea ill probably wind up going with more agressive cams later on i just got a smokin deal on the rocket motorsports valvetrain, might as well do it right the first time.

 

I am doing a similar build on my b18c
Skunk2 stage 2 cams
golden eagle cam gears
supertech springs and retainers
mugen headgasket
itr pistons
skunk2 I.M.
Smsp header
skunk2 exhaust
test pipe
aem short ram

would it be smart to get a new throttle body or injectors. oh and i am going to but tuned on neptune.

hey guys i see that you are building a b18c similar to the one i am starting to build to put into my crx for autox and roadracing. i wasn't sure about a few things. should i change the pistons and rods or keep the stock ones. and also what do you guys think of a port and polish? should i go for it? the good thing about my build is the motor is not in the car so i can do whatever i want with little hassle. will the stock pistons and rods hold up to 250 to the wheels and still be reliable? thanks a lot in advance. and similar to you guys here i will probably get skunk2 parts for the head. valves, springs, retainers, cams and gears(a little later on), mugen oil pan..

probably not. because 250whp is gonna need more displacement than a stock b18c1 has.

You won't have a chance at making 250whp on an oe botttom end b18c1, 200 is even a very high goal. But one thing that alway's needs to be remembered and is often not the case, dyo's numbers do'nt mean ****. Every dyno reads different, they are nothing more than a tuning tool, and give you a rough power figure.Definatley more importantly used to measure performance increases or decreases

I HATE all of these "ftl/ftw/shocker" ****** internet language terms, but anyway....I disagree with your statement.

See above^^ and I'm also going to hafta disagree here. Shaved OEM pulley if you are eliminating PS/AC is what I would reccommend.

"You've got ALLOT to learn but thats ok"
i agree i have a lot to learn but what made you think that from my post?and obviously i need to learn more, why do you think i am asking about it. and when you say "You've got ALLOT to learn but thats ok" doesn't really help me. if you know about this topic then can you help me out?

i made 9whp more everywhere with a tuned length intake. about the lenght of a cold air. so i agree, short rams suck.

 

Yay for flow velocity! Screw shortrams.
