Sleeve it. Get rid of the blockgaurd. Get a Competition stage 4 or 5 clutch ( i prefer 5.. so you have room to grow). That exedy is **** and stage 2 will not handle for ****.

Also.. I would get 725cc or 1000cc Bosch injectors.

watch those moroso oil pans. their crap! i have one on my turbo type r and you can only put 3 quarts of oil in b4 it starts to back up the drain line not to mention they put the drain bung in the worst spot.

you might also want to invest in a crankcase breather kit from endyne or z10 motorsports. i had a problem with too much crankcase pressure and it was causing the return to not drain properly and it was also causing tons of blow by resulting in the car smoking when i hit boost.

i solved the problem with deleting the "BLACK BOX" and pcv system and throwing in a breather kit. youll probally run into the same issues.

I've seen this also on a friends car. But where he had the worse problem was getting the thing to seal. It leaked no matter what we did to it! Also when you drain the oil it still leaves some of the old oil in the bottom on the pan because of the way the drain bolt is designed. It's not welded in far enough towards the bottom of the pan. Tap the factory pan and let it ride.

Id ditch RC and get the dynamic injectors or bosch. They run a lot better.. But then again I'm biased since i prefer bosch over rc's due to studys and shops running these instead of rc.

I have to 2nd the Injector Dynamics or the Bosch injectors. The RC ones do not have consistent flow rates as the ID1000 or the Bosch ones from the studies that I have seen hence I have the ID1000

AND...you can get a set of brand new set of 4 ID1000 for $450. Cant beat that...

I ran walboro 255 when I was at 350whp and 450whp on my setup and it ran fine. I'm assuming at 450whp it's over or about 500 crank so I think you should be fine

only thing is at 450whp I was on E85 but idk if that matters.

according to walbro's web site the 255lph's max out is good for up to 500whp.

its up to you what you want to do but if i was running something with that much power i wouldnt want to lean out and blow the motor. not to mention your cutting the life of the pump by running it at max output.

the fan will work fine all you need to do is cut the plug off the old one and soider it onto the new wires. as for the radiator your going to run into the same issues i did. the civic rad mount tab wont line up on a dc2. hense the reason i went to home depot and got 2 chrome straps.

heres a pic of what i rigged up.......hey its not the cleanest install but it works

I don't know. I mean on my RS I had the option of just being able to go to the wreckers and pull any old B18B out for $300 and pay a couple of my buddies in beer to swap it out. Mind you I NEVER had to do this aside from the very first engine which blew up the second it saw boost. This is an ITR engine you're talking about though.. Two totally different animals. Better safe than sorry.

I'd agree it's overkill on a motor that mostly runs on the street and only briefs the 1320. I mean to each his own but I have no intentions on making more than 400whp max on my next build. But, if your building a motor to be a track junkie or increasing displacement, then sleeves are the way to go.
