Another turbo build EJ8 B18C4
Ok. so here we go with this build. Its An EJ8 obviously and previously I had a MB civic VTI UKDM with a b18c4 engine and s9b box with diff (Similar to the tegs s80 but longer ratio) And the engine isn't to shy with the power away from the Integra either so its a good base engine to start with. equivalent to the gsr engine in the states. Not much difference to the b18c1.
I'm not going for huge mad power with this build although what I've got planned will take it up to a high figure with a good delivery of hp. Its going to be agile as well as fast. In the sense that if I took it to a sprint race or a hill climb it would do very well in them categories.
So the end result will be a good chassis setup. brilliant grip and traction, useable power to lay it down on the road as efficiently as possible but at the same time look good on interior and exterior.
So the plan is :
Ferrea valve train ,Guides, valves, springs, retainers, and new valve seats
Skunk2 pro2 cams
AEM coil on plug conversion
AEM twin fire 4channel ignition module
Hondata 4bar map sensor
ID 800cc injectors (will have some 1000cc on standby if I max the 800 out)
AEM series 2 EMS
Skunk2 ultra 3.5 intake manifold with 90mm pro throttle body
Top mount turbo manifold, Garrett gt3582r turbo with tial 44mm wastgate and tial bov
Custom rocker cover with two 10AN fittings for catch can
Fluidamper crank damper
Darton sleeved block at 83mm with forged cp pistons and eagle H beam rods at 9:1 compression, standard b18c4 crank (rebalanced)
Full roll cage
Flocked dash and rear shelf
Gaz fully adjustable height and damping coil overs
Frost white resprayed interior with all sound deadening removed and wires tucked
Cosmic grey respray exterior with XXR 527 staggered 17s, 9J on rear and 8.5 on front
Depowered rack
Full engine bay wire tuck, relocated battery to the rear of the car along with pro alloy fuel tank
Fuel and brake lines run in car with OBP pedal box setup and brake bias adjuster in dash
Rear disc conversion

thanks. Its not as good up close
and it don't look like that at the minute as I've just got various bits back from the body shop. well I've done a lot of research into it.been to a lot of shows now and a lot of the guys I have met are running on standard internals at factory bore size with uprated ecu and ancillaries such as inlet manifold injectors etc. All the basic stuff for a turbo build. the figure im seeing from most of them is around 350 bhp at the wheels. ive been told to add around 150 to that with my build for a total of 500 bhp with what I want to do..i was after a healthy 400 so that's good enough for me
