I got a 99 B18C in my 98 civic I am planning to start my turbo hopefully around Christmas. I was planning on a T3/T4 with a 48/60 a/r. I just want some input from everyone b/c im starting to get everything now. I have to lower the CR also b/c I have all type-R internals so if any1 has or knows where and the best internals to get help me out please. its bored out .25 also. So if you view this post just help me out and add some input I wanna push a good amount of boost so just give me whatever input you can

Thanks a lot
Rob

 

well u wanted input so here goes,it sounds like u have that motor build pritty good for n/a as far as having type r components and being bored out so if i were u i wouldnt take all that back out,i would either try tyo sell that motor or get a ls motor and build it. or u could just take all the internals out and have it sleaved(#1 b/c u had it bored out and#2 b/c u want to run a good amount of boost) i just wouldnt want to put all that money into a motor twice

 

thanks but you think that turbo is a good choice.

 

I think I set came to the conclusion that im just gonna get the new block and start form there and build that up. I figured I get the block, pistons, maybe rods, put on some sleeves and make it nice then sell my N/A block I could brake close to even maybe wind up only spending a couple of hundred. But What turbo does everyone think will be best.?/////?

get a greddy 2mm head gasket and some ARP head studs.

 

No sarcasim c'mon

 

sleeves alone are 850+, rods are about 300+, pistons about 300+, plus a complete extra shortblock to put it all in, at least 200, i don't think you'll get close to that from selling you 18c shortblock, just my .02

 

I know but im can't decide between a T3 super 60 or a T4/04 48/60 ar?//?
Which one??
