Default Good Setup for 300whp on B18C1?

Hi guys, I want to know your recomendations on a good setup to get 300whp on a B18C1. That will be my max boost, and will be daily driven around 8psi. Let me know what I would need for safe and reliable setup. If it helps this is for a 97 Civic 4Dr.

Thanks in advance!

theres a ton of people that make about 300whp with a stock b18c. and its usually done with a precision turbo.

Don't try it with the Greddy kit, it takes Alot more work.. a t3/t04 turbine should get u there with one hand behind the back...

search for me and you'll find my whole story on my Greddy setup. Do it right the first time around, and keep it simple.

A t3/t04E with a properly tuned setup should do the job. I'd say more closer to 10psi for 300whp but if you have the best parts 8psi is not impossible.

forged pistons of some sort, crower billet rods, sleeved block, built head, some sort of turbo cams, aem ems, dss stage 3 axles, or you can just buy a drag kit and get er done

i have the greddy kit now... with some extras, im not downing the kit at all. for my goals it will be perfect. but for someone wanting 300whp its a waste of money and time imo. sure it could be done. but for alot more money then it would cost to do it with a different setup

My suggestion

t3/t04e turbo
3" exhuast
Parts that work well together

Managment
Hondata, Aem , Uberdata,ect...
10 psi and a good tuner should do the trick

Keep things simple, use proven parts, and you will get proven results

Thanks alot guys for all the replys!

Oh, and I'm NOT trying to run 300whp on 8psi, I'm just saying thats the amount I'd be running when doing normal driving. I'd crank it up higher to max boost when I need the 300whp. I don't want to be in race mod full time. :D

But you really think I can hit 300whp with only 8-10psi?? I thought I'd need something like 14psi. I guess it really does depend on which turbo I use, right?

I did but couldn't find anything for my specific question. It was either a B18C1 with 250whp (too little) or something like 350/500whp (too much!). Maybe I'm a bad searcher, so if you'd be so kind as to point me to some good threads out of the 1209820938209 post I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Any more input is welcomed!
