i tryed to use the search but all i could fnd was type r's for sale, and not much details, i dont want to take any thing apart, i dont want to do a bigger head gasket ,i just want to run 6-8lbs at the track and close to nothing on the street, is it safe, or should i just finish my n/a build up any help would be nice

 

Search harder. Seriously, I don't think you're searching correctly. I just did a search because I didn't believe you couldn't find any info on a b18c5 + turbo. I found lots of threads. Search for b18c5 (not Type R), select archive content and forced induction forum.

 

i found plenty of info about boostin my b18c5!!!! Mine will be done soon cant wait. try looking into the old archives and type: turbo itr, or select FI and type itr, or go to the itr forum and type turbo

 

6-8 psi is way more than safe. Go for it.

 

i have been running 8psi daily for a while with no probs, ive been getting ballsy lately and hitting 11psi and still all runs great. . . still bone stock fo the moment

 

alcohol injection!

http://www.smcenterprises.com I'm using it on my street car (96 240sx). 10psi non intercooled with 9.5:1 compression. If you are intercooled, you can run nearly 15psi on pump gas with alchy injection.

http://www.turbobuick.com click msg boards, and then you'll find a whole forum section for alcohol injection by itself. people with GN's run 15psi on 93 octane, and 22-25 with alchy injection on 93.

 

you can safely run 22 lbs with an aftermarket headgasket FMU AFC and tuning.

 

22 lbs sounds a little far fetched, i daily drive my car, i just wanted to know if running my car on 8 psi was safe, whats the highest boost i can safely run with a diff head gasket, and who makes the gasket, where could i get it, safety is a big issue, i drive to work every day, and still need a reliable car, but i also want to blast some good e/t's my b18c5 is in a crx so it already runs 13.4 on dragradials

 

a friend of mine is daily driving his 98 type r runnin 12psi with an inline pro headgasket and arp headstuds, hes use a greddy gsr turbo kit with an afc hack for fuel mangement. hes on this board as "itr41" you can pm him if you like, he'll answer your questions.

 

stock block will just make you wanna boost more..

 

you will never touch 22psi on stock R internals. and if you do , enjoy that whole 5 sec of it
with inline pro headgasket inlnie runs the itrs they tuned on 12psi daily. they are good

 

Been running my stock motor'd ITR with turbo for 8 months and 22,000 miles of hard driving at 10psi.

which is the best kit for the itr? jdm itr? or is it more advisable to just build one from seperate parts?

You tell me how I want to know. Never heard it on stock internals.
