Im trying to decide what the next step is going to be with my car. I have a b18a in a 90 crx. Right now i have a turbo kit that i put together for it...but im starting to have doubts about it because its my daily driver and i dont wanna blow the thing up. Well a friend of mine REALLY wants my kit...so he asked me if i want to trade some stuff for it. My kit consists of a revhard mani with a t3/t4(both have less than 4k miles on it), a custom spearco IC, hks ssq bov, all piping, msd inline pump and a 12:1 fmu...and a bunch of misc stuff. He wants to trade me a built ls head with dual valve springs, crower 404's, valve guide seals, and a slight p&p and a skunk2 IM, plus used DC 4-2-1 headers, aem intake, a VIS cf hood, and some used slicks wth very few passes left on them. I drive this car ALOT...so i want it to be reliable. I know that it would be alot faster boosted....but the reliability thing is what im concerened about. What would you guys do? Im not made of money so i cant just replace the engine if it blows...id have to save up for a while. Im torn on this man...i dont know what to do. Thanks

get hondata and run what you got.

 

slap that turbo on it!!! just don't crank up the boost...keep it at 5 or 6 psi until you can afford to blow it up or build it up.

 

Get some engine managment hondata or EMS. If not just get a AFC and some bigger injectors leave at about 6 psi. You will be ok! Goodluck
