For the head I would go with a full Ferrea Valve Train, using all of their comp plus stuff.

I'm not sure what fuel system to run yet I still haven't gotten that far yet any suggestions nitroice40?

Kr3w108 I'm not sure if I'm going to push it to that much hp yet I think it's just going to be to be safe when I do push it hard.

AZ civic do you have any links that you know to that stuff spacific ?

The turbo AZ_Civic was referring to was at over 40psi-42psi to do that power on a Garrett hybrid test unit 62mm inducer with 74mm wheel diameter exhaust wheel. Backpressure was still at a minimum, but the turbo was stretched to see how far it could go.

"Safe" isn't a word you can really use of pushing to over 800whp. Now you REALLY need to have your act together with a good camshaft, valvetrain, the correct turbocharger (over 80lbs/min) and don't try to use the word "spool".. For that power, expect high knock-resistant fuel (C16, E98, FTW, etc etc) and the accompanying fuel system to get it. If you're not familiar with what parts are needed, don't expect a complete list to help. Head to the Drag Racing forum, see similar setups and budgets they use for that 800whp set up, and come back to your thread with more specific questions.

No problem. No disrespect... Just making sure that you're not falsely believing that 800hp is some cookie cutter formula to just piece together. Sure there are a few things that are standard, but not nearly as many as you think, especially if your purpose is outside of dedicated drag racing. Only people who do that ask for those kinds of numbers.

Ride in a few turbo Hondas if you can in your area (you didn't state your location) so, that will help narrow those goals down.

Good luck.

I like in Yakima Washington lol but yeah not sure I want to make 700 whp but I was saying 800 to 900 to be safe in the build so I know it will hold up for a while and no one around here here I live at really push numbers like that usually around 480 ish 500 hp but I'm trying to make something tat will be well worth it and might as well go all out it will take a while for me yeah finally since in my 2nd job is what will be funding my race car dream lol
Also I'm new here so do you think you would be able to point me to the right direction with the buld I'm trim to do ?

Punctuations please. That short paragraph was hard to read. Like what TheShodan said, head over to the drag racing sub forum or better yet do a search. You should be able to find what you're looking for in a matter of minutes. Best of luck with your build!

Is the car going to be raced at the drag strip. Kinda curious why you want soo much HP, also with goals that high you should definetly think about going with some higher displacement sounds kinda difficult on a 1.6

The high numbers are going to be from using race gas. I'm planning on running 92 pump for every other day driving. I want to run at the drag strip once in awhile but mostly just street use. I know it's a lot of hp to run on a street car but oh well
And I have been doing reserve for a while now and I can't really find something that leads me to the right direction in my build. People usually just go for 400-500 hp build but Im looking or a bit more hp. My first thing that I'm going to do is getting my block sleeved ( darrow wet mid sleeves )

And have you ever driven a 1 ton, 800 WHP car? There's a line between fast and stupid, and DD'ing a Civic like that is jumping straight across that line. This isn't the kind of thing you just throw together. If you're asking these simple questions...maybe aiming for a lower goal first would be a good idea.
