mycarsux Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 You don't really NEED to rebuild a motor to get more boost but if you really want to just for the hell of it, then like ok go for it. No one's stopping you. From what I know, you only need to rebuild a motor when you're losing compression. How much boost do you wanna run anyway? What's your turbo setup gonna be? I want details on what you wanna do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 If you are going to build it from the ground up, why not get a Dart B20+ block. You'll make more topend than you would with a OEM block. Or put a stroker crank in it and keep the same topend as an OEM block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SolLesHonda Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Lol at 4psi daily and 8 at the most on track. Someone doesn't know about turbos. B18C1's can reliably run 10 psi daily on stock internals. I have known them take 14 daily and last years of abuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mycarsux Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 By "rebuilding" I mean changing ALL the internals. Sorry I didn't make that clear. Pistons are a good option for a change for internals, that's about it. And like SolLes says its not even really necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is seriously funny. 4psi? A type R can handle more than that daily. As SolLes said, stock B18C1's pushing 9-10psi are a dime a dozen. It's all about the tuning, and to be honest, you could run 8psi daily with a mediocore tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
