Hi folks im planning to rebuild my B18c Engine and need some advice, here is my setup:

Jdm B18c Engine (GSR)
62mm h22 Throttle Body Installe
B16a Intake Manifold
Type 1.6 Type R Camshafts
Type R ValveSprings
AEM Adjustable Cam Gears
Stock Block 10.6 compression
Hytech Replica Header
Type R Full Exhaust
Mugen xh4 Ecu

Some guys said that for this mild setup the hytech replica is not a good combination, for your experience what do you think? also a friend has a LS crankshaft and eagle rods... do you think this is good for me or just keep the b18c one...

How much whp do you thing i will get with this setup?

Regards

 

use a hondata and tune it.. and how exactly are u bolting the b16 intake mani to a gsr head? re drilling it and crap?

 

I know is better using hondata or crome but i already have this ecu so will use it. Here in Dominican Republic are lot of guys racing circuit and 1/4mille using and having good results from this ecu.

I got the b16 intake manifold ready to be installed on p72 head from a friend so it was just plug and play.

 

Go with some higher compression pistons if your gonna stay all motor.(RS Machine)
Get your Mugen ECU reprogrammed for YOUR EXACT engine setup.(Neptune or Hondata are good choices)
Im thinking a stock TYPE R exhaust wont be a whole lot better than a good aftermarket one with about a 2.5" - 2.75" piping...
The factory B16 intake manifold has a different bolt pattern than the P72 head. Are you sure you have a P72 head? Are you sure the B16 manifold is really that? (Id look at the Performer X)
More compression and bigger cams are the way to go...The costs to use the LS crank and eagle rods are not worth it IMO for a fairly simple setup like yours...

 

he has the manifold re drilled to fit..

 

Yes im looking for a little bit of more compression but nothing more than 11 cause gas hear sucks. I think i will be near this number if i add the LS crackshaft but will take your advice and just change the pistons, i cant get pr3 ones and get more than 11 points of compression.

Mugen ECU is obd2a and cant be reprogrammed, anyway is a racing table with lot of fuel and ignition hope that work for my poor setup.

Yes i already have the B16 intake manifold in my p72 head i will take some pics to show you.

Im planning to sell the b16 camshafts and take some Blox B but first i need to check if my mugen ecu like it, the vtec xovers is too soon... about 4400rpm.

Regards and thanks for the advices.

Here some pics of my ride, is a 97 GSR. In the second one im with my brother's Lude with 244whp

 

Ahhh, ok..
Id get a wideband o2 sensor for inside the car. Probably one of the most important guages IMO. Dont want to run the piston too hot.
I think P30 pistons will yield some pretty decent compression, but im not sure how high you can go with whatever octane fuel is available and whatever the timing maps are set at...
Are there any tuners in your area? You really should get tuned on a dyno so your engine runs the way it should..Good luck!

Nice cars BTW. Is that 244 whp all motor? Any times?

 

Yes we have a lot of great tuners here... i will go to dyno and look for the best fuel pressure and ignition for the mugen XH4. We have lot of great result using this ECU, for example there is a ITR running 12's with this ecu.

Yes All motor... we dont have times yet... will let you know.

 

Updates:

I made a trade for some Blox B camshaft now im going with this and PR3 Pistons...
I also said good bye to Mugen Ecu now im going with a full tune.

what springs and retainers for advice? im thinking in Blox Valvesprings and Crower Chromoly retainers... trying to avoid the titanium wear problem

Regards

 

What's the Titanium wear problem?

 

hey im planning on bolting my b16 intake manifold to my gsr head do you know wat forms i can find out where to drill the extra hole?
