Default Automatic teg question

Hi. This is my first time posting here I hope it's in the right place. I busted my foot up pretty bad recently and now the whole clutch thing just isn't happening. So I went shopping and picked my self up a 98 teg with a B18c engine for next to nothing. If anyone can help me out with some suggestions on how to build a fast AT teg...... I'll be a very happy man.

I should also mention that I'm living in Japan not the states.

Thanks guys!

Welcome to the board. :cheers:

Building a B18C motor into a powerhouse is not going to be much of a challenge. There are plenty of aftermarket solutions available for your motor. If you're looking for low 13-second 1/4 mile times, turbocharging is the ideal solution, in my opinion.

However, the weakpoint in your drivetrain is the transmission. There are at least 2 companies (here in the US) that offer staged performance rebuilds for Honda automatic transmissions.

Here's a link to an earlier discussion on performance automatic transmissions.


Since the majority of our members are in the USA & Canada, we're used to catering to the North American market. Since you're in Japan, the same services ought to be available locally.

Thanks for the advice and the link.

What brand of turbo kits do you suggest?

If there are any highly reccomended parts I can most likely track them down fairly easily here in Japan.

cheers!

If you peice a kit together yourself, you will save alot. Not sure about you're experience and knowledge, but you will gain alot in the process. Some info: http://www.homemadeturbo.com What year integra did you get? Can we see a pic or 2?

First thing to do when considering any type of modification to your honda, is learn about tunning. http://www.pgmfi.org is a great place to start. This is necessary reguardless of what direction you take (NA or FI).

Good luck with your build!
