i have a integra 94, b18c1, i just got the engine rebuild and it has 400 miles. im trying to decide on wether i should turbo it, like 5-8 boost.
im starting to do research on it, but i want to know just the pros and cons on it. And what other people think about turbo.

any help is greatly appreciated. please no negative posts.

 

when you say you had it rebuild what all did you have done?

 

Same question, kind of, was it rebuilt for turbo? 94

 

Even a stock rebuild would be fine with a little boost. The key for the motor to run good and long is have it tuned by a good tuner and the motor will run great. Break it in or have it broke in on the dyno and tune it!

 

new pistons, rings, seals, gaskets,not sure what else

 

what do you mean by a good tune??
i have 457 miles on the engine right now

 

another thing is, my car is salvage. so is it even worth it adding the turbo?

 

bump

 

There's no reason not to turbo it IMO. I'm actually in the process of rebuilding a bone stock GSR (B18c1) for a friend and he intends to boost it. A stock B series with a proper tune and appropriate fuel is safe in the mid 300whp range...so stop setting goals in terms of PSI. As far as you're concerned, boost pressure is only relevant when choosing a MAP sensor...and I'll make that easy for you, get a GM 3bar map sensor if/when you boost.
