Sleeves, Rods, and Pistons...

for sleeves, try:
Golden Eagle
Darton

Rods:
Crower
Eagle

Pistons:
Arias
JE
Wiseco

Stock compression is a little high unless you have good tuning and don't mind running race gas. Between 9:1 and 9.5:1 makes good power.

 

Building your bottom end would be expensive because it consists of resleeving the cylinders to allow use of forged pistons, and then you would want stronger rods, Balanacing and Blueprinting is a good idea, and knife-edging your frees up some of the rotational mass on the crank which adds some power... But if you want to actually build your bottom end with forged pistons you have to fork over the dough for some iron ductile sleeves...

 

No

WTF does that mean?

 

money is not really that big of a deal for me i plan on this taking me a year to build and tubo the enginge and i make pretty good money i just want to know the best way to go.....thanx guys

 

dont go out and buy a "kit" like greddy or drag3 or anything like that. If you are looking for some real power, make your own. get your own peices and put it together. Talk to precisionh23 looks as if you live in the general area and he would be more than happy to help with intercooler piping all building the motor for you.

 

You should realize that building a motor for boost is very expensive... After the sleeving rods, pistons, turbo, piping, ecu and tuning you're looking at 5k+ at least. That doesn't include if you need to upgrade your axles and other misc parts that could break.

Have a few extra k's in the bank just in case...

 

darton or ge sleeves
cp or je pistons
crower or pauter rods
micropolish/blueprint/balance crank and rotating assembly
new oil pump, tb, prodrive oil pump gears, bearings
remove balance shafts if you want and get plugs from hondaaddict.
i would NOT knife-edge the crank, imo, it's not worth losing the
reliability for such a small gain.

this should put you around 3500 just to build up the block.

I would talk to Earl or Anthony (precesionh23a)
if you need someone to build it
