heay everyone this winter im taking out my b16 first gen out of my EF and putting it into a new fresh EF. Doing so i felt it was time to get boost. so my first issue was money like many of my fello friends. so i was going to run a turbo kit on the motor at low boost with stock internals, with hondata. i was going to get the standered new injectors, fuel pump, ect, ect. but i recently came across a friend that as some stock b18 ls rods and pistons he says that they are one of the strongest b-series rods out of all the stocks atleast better then the b16s. so my question is if i can get these off him for nothing whould they fit in the block and on the crank of my b16? and whould it help a little i figure if its going to help i whould get some new cams and valve springs and such for the head too so i could run a little more boost. he say the pistons say PR4 and the rods say PR4 9 and the bottom of the rod also says PR4. i dont know what that means but, whatever. so whould i have to change the crank and anything out. or whould it be totaly f#ck to do it.

 

your on a budget build but your gonna run hondata :eek3:

there are far cheaper fuel management systems than hondata and im not talking about an fmu or 'the hack'.look into uberdata, crome, turboEdit or even neptune. they all are cheaper than hondata but still very effective.

sorry i can't help you with the pistons/rods. im a single cam'er for life

 

LS rods will not fit in a B16.

I do agree that you should look into a cheaper engine management system than Hondata for your budget build.

 

ok ok thanks guys. i just thought hondata, cause i heard it was the easyiest to work with. does anybody have any EMS in mind i should lok for.
