Bore ideas
Son is have a b18c1 completely broken down everything worked be for it pulled it all apart but it had been sitting for 7 years andown wanted to replace all the seals and gaskets and just look over the internals. Now that I have it all broke down I have port and polished the head and just fine tune little stuff. My question is should (while I have the engine all apart) I bore out the engine, I want to turbo the car but I also just want to get the CRXsi back on the street dose anybody have any ideas or thoughts on boring the engine if I'm going to turbo it, or should I just put it all back together?
Hey Pyro thanks for the input. I had run into a old friend who is huge into racing and I showed him pics and he same the same thing don't bore it cause I was super clean and no real need to for the direction I want to go.
Pics can't tell you very well if it needs to be bored or not. The cylinders should be measured for taper/out of round/etc. and then the decision can be made. Have the block measured up, don't order pistons until you know either way.
Take it to a machine shop and have everything measured. They will be able to tell you what you NEED to do. Even though it ran fine 7 years ago, the bores may not be perfectly round. You will want the bores perfect, especially with a performance type build.
Good luck!
