...search

we cant build your car for you man. the internet is flooded with information on hondas.

 

well a turbo build can be very expensive and 400 hp on pump gas would require a farly large turbo... my friend has a 2 door 460 hp at 28 lbs of boost and thats on c17 race fuel mixd with 93 oct and on 93 octaine he only pushes 280 hp on 18 lbs i think maybe 15 not sure and thats with a farley medium size gt30r turbo so basically you would need at least probrably a gt40r to make 400-500hp on pump gas... which would then make 800 on race fuel so its on you but if you want an equally fast motor i have a 270 all motor whp engine i am selling and it would save you a lot of money and i just got it out of the shop just got done being built never ran head isnt even on the block yet but its the same exact build i have in my DC which has 273 whp and i run an 11.23 et which is about what your going to be looking at with a 400hp turbo car my friend with his 460 hp civic only ran a best of 11.27 with slicks and his turbo would sppol up a lot faster than a gt40r so the gt40 wouldn't nessasarily be the best way to go which would be the only way to make 400hp on pump gas newho sorry guys for the non use of punctuation and capitalization any my motor for sale is in my signature go look at it

 

i think the best advice anyone can give you is to research stuff for yourself. no one can tell you what to do with your own car. just hit up the faq section and read some of those threads, alot of good ****. they have helped me alot. so advice from me read and research first.

oh if you have an evo you should already have some experience with boost

wtf you have a 270 hp all motor setup, you sure. you dont have to run race gas for high horsepower. my homeboy has a 400hp coupe on pump gas. its all in the tuning if you ask me

It's under everyone's avatar, it's the lil Georga washington's head looking thing.

If you can PM, you can report. It's left of the PM button. The far left.

 

oooooooooooooooo ill trade you my 97 accord daily f22b1 5 spd

my d16z6 built turbo, with nitrous, ex/si trans, a project cr-sex, and a type-r long block for that evo

 

wow you guys cant just help someone out?isnt that what this forum is about?

i mean just let me know what motor is best and ill go from there...

this is sad

 

it's not that, it's just these same questions are asked everyday. thats what the faq is for, to help you out. there is no best motor, everyone has their own opinions. so thats why we all say research first. use the search button it wont hurt you

 

what i would do is get your hands on the sickest motor ever!!!


the dual point injection honda d15b1 !!

 

looking into a b18c1 fully built with a fat turbo(T70,GT40R)who knows...

 

well, look into the forced induction section, read, read, read. It's what i've done, and it's helpful. But, since you probably don't want to be kept on being told to search, here's a few, simple ideas. You could get a B16 or B18C from http://www.hmotorsonline.com (i've heard very good things about them) and then build your motor you have, maybe from here http://www.jgenginedynamics.com , if that's in your budget, and then read up on everyone's turbo setups and their goals. you could go here http://www.turboneticsinc.com and see what of their turbochargers sound right for your goals. Someone a while back made a really nice guide on installing a turbokit on their white hatch. I'll try to find it. If you peice it together, negative part is to make sure have all parts and hoses and what not. hope that helps a little before this gets locked. How much can you spend??btw

 

oh, and a good tune is essential. sorry, not trying to be a post *****

 

if i were to get rid of the evo and get myself into a hatch w/a new loan i could proabably spend 20k...i dont think ill need that much tho...thanks boost_V for the help

 

no problem, 20k would PLENTY for that goal. sounds like a good plan. let us know how it goes

 

why get rid of the evo? you dont like it.

 

i love the evo!but was just checking out doing a hatch project.seems like i can buy the hatch and build it for cheap and be quicker/faster then the evo.its a big decision

It's impossible to answer which motor is best buddy. Different strokes for differen't folks. not to mention anyones available time, budget, and know-how.

It's just not feasible to have an answer for everyone who comes in this forum asking US what to do to THEIR car.

We see this **** 25 times a week, people who can't find their way out of a wet paper bag.

Christ on a crutch

 

well if you do sell it you will have more then enough for an eg build. good luck. like i said before just do your research before you dive in.
