newkidwithsol Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 For internals... I know I need pistons... just forged pistons or something more special? Any brands you would like to suggest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
del_moonpie Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 For what bud? Are you planning on forced induction? Be a little more specific Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

del_moonpie Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 hell aint that the truth. Theres almost ALWAYS gonna be a damn leak or something just not working right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newkidwithsol Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 Dont mean to be rude but im still waiting for the answer... I want to order them asap! What i meant about the second time thats cuz i blew some crap up! I dont want to do that.. Gaskets and crap like that i dont care about.... its the costly items i dont want to deal with... What internal do i need (should) i replace becides pistons? I was told valves... i was told to get the ones with sodium inside them cuz they put up with heat better... I dont know tho... thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranny Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 you dont need anything really , just run 8psi on the stock engine , it will be fun. if you wanna build it , than 9.5:1 pistons , eagle H rods , and 10psi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newkidwithsol Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 For the manifold... will i need a special one to fit since I have a b18b1? Or will it be fine? For higher psi do i need better pistons? I hear that i need to lower compresion.... how is that done? I lookin to make some extreme power! Plus I know a kid with a pontiac sunfire that runs 11's and I want to be able to waste him! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben. Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Nevermind wasting the Sunfire. Congratulate him on wasting money in the most serious of ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newkidwithsol Posted October 17, 2007 Author Share Posted October 17, 2007 Ya I know.... but he didnt spend a dime! His dad owns Hann (think thats how its spelt) turbos! So the turbo he got was free... All the work done to his car is a write off for his dad for advertising and promotion.... So...... Its the ugliest thing I have ever seen too. http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?...imageID=1187565 I want to push around 15-20 psi...... exactly how fast will that be with a B18B1? What will I need to have to be able to handle that heavy hp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kegger Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 Okay if you want to push that much boost, you're gonna need the following: Get the block sleeved i.e. Darton, Eagle Eagle H-beam rods 9.5:1 CP pistons i.e. Arias ACL bearings ARP rods and bolts foe everything in that motor Cams Valve springs Valves IM and TB And thats just the motor, not the tranny or axles or parts for the turbo.

Hatch92 Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 are you trying to build a budget car or are you looking to spend the money and do everything "right"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newkidwithsol Posted October 18, 2007 Author Share Posted October 18, 2007 Well I want to spend some money but im 18 and a college student..... so both? Since I'm not rich.... pay my own insurance for two of my cars and pay my own payments on both cars.... so i will let any of you pay for the build if you want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newkidwithsol Posted October 22, 2007 Author Share Posted October 22, 2007 Well... due to my funds I have been tossing a few things around... I think Im going to take some of your word about running 8psi. I can run all day on 8psi as a dailiy driver and not harm anything? Will my B18B1 handle the 8 psi from home to school (5hrs) once a week and not harm anything? Then I can upgrade internals when the time is right and then just upgrade turbos.....right? at 8psi am i able to "jump" on it? Well of course I can! But i mean without blowing anything!

Hatch92 Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 8psi with a with a decent tune will make some nice numbers for a DD. it would also allow you to upgrade everything when the time is right and you have the money to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolLesHonda Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 On an LS, screw building the head, and sleeving. You can run 20psi + without any of that. Get new pistons, rods, and rod bolts. Get a tune. Boost away. b18B's are strong ass motors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newkidwithsol Posted October 29, 2007 Author Share Posted October 29, 2007 Actually this last weekend I came across someone that said the same thing that you just said SolLes. I didnt believe them, but I noticed your comments on other threads and i know you know what youre talking about. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
