Default very mild build question...

i'm about to upgrade my b18c1 with itr pistons and itr valve train(minus cams, i'm going with some sort of stage 1's later), will i need to upgrade my fuel system?(i.e. injectors, fuel pump) i'm not looking for astronomical numbers i'm guessing 180- 195 with tuning and a decent header and the other bolt ons. but i also want to leave the door open to light boost later on. anyother upgrades neccessary?

if you wanna go turbo later on, don't bother installing the pistons, unless you feel like rebuilding the block up again to go low compression for the boost. As far as fuel pump and injectors there was a thread here that stated stock pump and injectors are good for 190 whp.

Fuel system should be fine for those mods.

I agree with Don, it will be fine BUT, for all-mtr-teg, he said light boost and there are plenty of people running around reliably on a 10lb setup with a T04e .57 trim and having no issues so there is really no reason to forgo the itr pistons unless he is wanting to make more than say 300whp on pump reliably with a turbo motor. It should be fine.

This is of course all my personal opinion and I know less than nothing about a honda, much less a turbo honda

(my little disclaimer)
