Hello my english is not verry good so i do my best.

I have a b18c4 engine and i have a set b16b pistons .

Ill chime in since your foreign and i can understand how hard it could be sometimes.

Take my advise and forget the b16b pistons, The dome is too high on those pistons and will need careful assembling like for example claying the motor to make sure your not going to get piston to valve contact! Your comp will be pretty high as well. Iv built many of these engines!

Use JDM Type R pistons! they will bump the comp up more than standard USDM Type R pistons, These pistons will work much better. you should be around 190 hp with a good tune depending on the rest of the engine setup. A better exhaust manifold and intake manifold and a 2.5'' cat back will give you close to 200hp.

 

if he has enough octane it will work good

 

If this is streetcar and no E85 available, I also recommend P73-00 pistons instead PCTs. With your P72-cylinderhead these gives you nice CR and you can still run with pumpgas.

Because you wrote "B18C4", I assume you live somewhere in Europe. So, EDM ITR B18C6 also use these same pistons as JDM ITR engine. Actually, only significant differences between these two engines is header and ecu. So don't pay "JDM-extra".

Something else than stock intakemanifold would be also good upgrade (if you don't have already).

 

Thanx for the info yes i life in the netherlands
And i got a e85 pump within 3 miles
so i can get e85 nearby

The rest of the setup for now is going to be .

Hytech big tube
Edelbrock victor x / skunk2 ultra.
70 mm throttle
Blox velicoty stack .



1 year a go i had a lot of setbacks
And i solt my eg b16 high boost car
Now i wanna pick it up again and start over so the setup is for now .
The plan is to go dart engine b20 all motor / or semi turbo

So i just want the best engine power for now with the parts that i already have .

I do have a set b16a pistons and a b16b zo you say better b16a .


Build 3 hondas in the past

1 all motor b20 271 hp 244 torq
2 b16 turbo fuily build hit on dyno 670 hp on 1.4 bar boost als 550 torq

Mis my cars

Thanx for the help
