i have a 98 honda Civic DX with a D16y7 engine...and i want to put a B16 or 18 into it.. itsa it a hard swap, if its your first time doing it...I dont want to pay the money to have it done cause i dont have the money.. and i want to learn how to do it.. and the only way i canlearn is by doing it myself, with a little help.. whichi wil have...and what should i do to the engine..before i turbo it.. (Which i want to do by march or april),Who makes the best turbos for hondas? any help would be great
Thanks...

 

it depends on how big of a turbo app u want to go...t3/t4 turbo's are good but the problem is tuning...people like to throw big turbos on motors and hope for BIG power without doing the proper motor modifications and end up blowing their motor in the tuning phase but picking a turbo is up to u (there are plenty out there!!!!!)

 

yeah.. i dont want to just throw a Turbo onto my engine.. and be like "Haha, that was easy!" *Starts car...engine blows up* "Well shit"

i want to do the right mods to the engine so it can handle the power first.

what should i do, Forged pistons, stage 1 or 2 clutch.. all that good stuff...i know theres alot more lol. I just dont feel like listing them.

 

stock b series engines can handle 10psi on stock internals if the engine is healthy. if you want to make more power then you should upgrade to forged internals. what are your power goals?

 

im looking to get between 220hp and 250hp to the wheels right now...i dont really need any more than that...

 

a stock b18c1 can handle that easily with a decent tune
