Hello H-T, I am finally going to start my build thread. As some of you know, I have been building a B18C1 GSR for boost. I figured that I will finally start my own build thread so that if I run into any troubles along the way I will have my H-T family to guide me through it. This is what I have so far. This will all be going into my 2000 Acura Integra GSR.

Our builds are pretty similar. Especially if you end up getting the Wolverine, is that what you want the most? You said youll be on 2 tunes correct? Pump and c16?

 

Yes, I am almost positive that I will be getting the Wolverine from Mac. Yes, I will be using two tunes. One on 93 and another on C16 sir. As I stated in your thread sir, I am just waiting to get my head back from the machine shop so that I can get her up and running.

 

 

ooooo.. pics of the car.. pics of the car!!!

 

 

Here is an old pic of the car sir. The car has been sitting in the driveway since December and it is very dirty at the moment. I will upload some new pics as soon as I have the chance sir.

 

Nice build man, I'll be following this.

 

Thank you sir.

 

I have a GO-AUTOWORKS 68mm throttle body and of course the Victor X opening is only 65mm, what is the best method/process to port match them?

 

Anyone? I have searched and I have watched the Skunk2 video on how to port match but I just want to make sure that I will be doing it right. I talked to my guy at the machine shop and he stated that when port matching the throttle body to the intake manifold the intake manifold opening should be tapered. Is this true? I do not want to cause any turbulence. Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance H-T.

 

I think as long as the inlet manifold hole is bigger (or the same size) as the throttle body exit you'll be fine. Its only when the flow of air hits a "step" it caused turbulence with things like this. As for porting it, i'd just make a trace and mark off what needs to be taken off then remove it with a dremel or what ever you have.

 

Thanks Rich, that is exactly what the Skunk2 video says to do.

 

No problem

 

Lug nut and rachet socket creative way to hold up that block on the engine stand haha. Build looks good so far man!

 

Thank you sir, the bolts are my head bolts too. Haha

 

Why not use your transmission bolts? That with the nut from the front fork off your suspension works perfect

 

What are your hp goals? The 4.7 final is going to hurt you.

 

400whp on 93 and 550whp on c16. At 8500rpm my 98 spec JDM Type R tranny will top out at 164mph in 5th gear with a 24.5inch tire. That is plenty in the MPH department for me.

 

oooo, yea.. 4.785.. lots of acceleration

 

Who tops out 5th gear tho?????

 

Who doesn't

 

I am not trying to be a smart donkey but why not? The 98 spec JDM Type R tranny will still accelerate faster than any other stock B Series tranny even though if I have to shift into 5th gear.

 

I have a spoon 4.69 final drive in my ek9 gearbox and i love it. I don't get this whole "the longer the gear the better " thing. Isn't it more personally preference and application??

 

Yes it is sir but why would you want less acceleration? Don't we modify our cars to go faster/quicker? If you have a good traction control system(your brain and your right foot, haha) you will be perfectly fine. I mean if your tires are spinning wouldn't it make sense to ease off the throttle?
