I just bought a 95 honda civic 2dr and what to modify the hell out of it. The problem is i don't know ^%*$ about motors. What would be the best setup under 5000 for motor and turbo. Also what kind of hp will i get. I appreciate the help

 

hmmm.... u wanna go drag, autocross, or something else?

 

holy shit...this mite be the first time I have ever heard this question!!!! or you could try the search button....I bet it has been asked before...:naughty:

 

Yeah kid, there are alot of people on here that could talk all day about engines and really know their stuff, but:

a)They have already typed it a few times in old threads
and
b) would probably help you if you had more specific questions AFTER you did some searching on here and found out a little more what you want in an engine setup.

:thumbup:

Try searching things such as B18c1 or B16 or B18 or LS/VTEC and greddy etc just to get you started.

 

Told like a Pro ! Nice god !

 

I did use the search feature but i only got information about how to do a motor swap and stuff like that. I didn't see anything about what would be the best motor turbo setup. I would like a motor that i could woop some other honda ass or just go to the races and do good. I dont have 15000 to drop into a motor. I am on a budget of around 5000. I would appreciate it if you could help me.

 

w/ 5g I'd do an h22 swap and then boost it.

 

so a h22 is better than a b16? What kind of turbo would you recomend for the dollar amount i have to spend and then what turbo would you want. Thanks for helping me

 

I forgot to ask if the h22 is an easy swap just like to b16 is supposed to be for my 95 civic

 

haha yeah right you might be able to get an H22 in a 5G civic for $5000 but not a turbo H22.

I would get a b18b swap and turbo that h: Its a very easy swap for a 5G civic. If you want a good turbo for a great price PM Westcoaststyle he sells them and can tell you what would be the best turbo for the money.
