so im gonna be boosting my b18c1 in my ej2 early next year and i need some advice... i have a blox b18 manifold, rc440's, blox fuel rail and fuel pressure regulator, hondata s200, walbro 255, and NGK blue wires installed... should i upgrage anything? my goal is 300whp... i have a garrett t3/t5 ill be putting on there... any input would be great

 

exhaust?

 

magnaflow highflow cat, 3inch piping, magnaflow SS muffler

 

oh, and i am about to purchase an XSpower super rfl bov, 50mm wastegate (large i know but brand new), and pretzel header... im thinking about going up to rc750's since according to the performance calcs, ill more than likely max out my duty cycle on 440's before i hit my 300whp goal

 

I would use the hondata s300 instead since it has boost control. Also you just said pretzel header.... maybe a little more specific....

 

yea i heard that some tuners prefer the s300 over the s200... the header is an XSpower acura integra b seriers turbo manifold, and i have a greddy profec b-spec II boost controller

 

Don't forget to mustard your timing on the dizzy.

 

hahaha yea it looks something like that... i wanted to get a ram horn but i couldnt find a lightly used one for a good price... im piecing this kit together... its my first turbo build

 

No pun intended, but take my above post with a grain of salt.

 

as soon as i get the kit installed (hopefully early this coming year) i will be taking it to church automotive in wilmington, CA, for tuning the next day... buddy of mine brought his WRX there and they squeezed out 643whp... from what ive been reading on here, a tune will make or break your application, even in low boost

 

Just try to stay away from high sodium manifolds. They tend to dehydrate your chassis and clog up your wastegate.

 

lol i think i can handle that... you have any advice?

 

Seeing as how my last 3 posts were troll-posts, yes.

Stay the heck away from XSpower, SS-autochrome and all that ebay junk. I still don't know what you mean by "pretzel header", and when you say "XSpower acura integra b series turbo manifold", there are like 6 different styles to choose from, so we still don't know what you're talking about.

If anything, I thought you were referring to a ramhorn manifold, because two of those pretzels on top of each other would KIND OF resemble a ramhorn, but then you mentioned that you didn't get the ramhorn, so I am at a loss to help you there.

Anyway, when it comes down to it, your manifold will probably start cracking after a month, and it doesn't come with any type of warranty. Like I said, stay away from cheap, shitty ebay brands.

Look into the following brands:

Full-race
go-autoworks
rc autoworks
spoolin performance
synapse turbo

thats the link to it, couldnt figure out how to post a picture, still new to the forum... ill start looking around for those brands instead... still new to boost so i need all the advice i can get

 

Yeah that thing will fall apart.

expect to pay three times that for JUST the manifold; no WG or gaskets, if you want something quality that will last and has a lifetime warranty.

 

what about injectors? will my rc440's work fine or should i upgrade? goal is 300whp

 

hooyah aw.

 

HOOYAH!! You got any advice? First turbo build so I need all the help I can get

 

alot of street racers in sd
u should find one with a ebay kit into the 350whp and copy him.........

 

Also alot of people with wheels and body kits and not much else Haha... the guy who lives across from me is building a k20 I think but all motor... I went down that route once but have since been converted to boost... the only posibly ebay item I am going to be getting is a few things from xspower but what they most sell there is batteries... the head I'm getting isn't that great but will work till I have the money to buy another block amd build it until it's ready to be put in with a bigger turbo

 

take a trip to the valley 400 is nothing on stock block!
