anyone know a good way to build a b18c1 for torque? 170 hp n 129 ft. lbs. don't seem like much jus seeing if anyone had an idea how to build one for torque? do you need higher commpression? a turbo? thanks to anyone replying!!

 

boost and/or lots of displacement

with all motor builds torque seems to max out at 160-170 with 2-2.2L displacement.

boost it and you can make as much as the engine can handle.

 

kind of hard to get much displacement from a b18 , so i guess i'll have to boost how much psi could a stock b18c1 handle??

 

Companies Make a 89mm, 92mm, and 95mm Crank for b18a/b/c1-5 blocks, lack displacement isn't the issue, price is the issue!!!

10psi to be on the safe side on a stock block.

 

Boost pressure is irrelevant.

A stock block can handle about 300 whp, run as much pressure as it takes to reach your goal. It might be 8 psi on a larger turbo, or 20 psi on a smaller turbo. CFM has more of an influence on horsepower and torque.

 

so if i wanna go over 300 whp i need different rods n pistons?,Sleeves? crank should be ok though right?

 

Forged pistons & rods will safely make 400 - 450 whp. Add sleeves and your potential shoots to the 600+ mark.

Honda cranks have proven strong in applications approaching 800 whp.

Tunning is key, one wrong move and your setup is toast.

 

will the hondata s300 provide me with what i need for a good tune??

 

YES!!! Just make sure you add the boost option when you buy it!!!

 

The S300 has the boost feature built in. It isn't like the S200 where it has to be purchased separately.
