You have $4k and a B18C1
Ideas, thoughts and reccomendations? I am helping a good friend build his B18C1 Del Sol. I was givin a 4k budget minus my time spent. The engine is in pristine condition and I was thinking just a light hone and standard wisecos or SRP's on Eagles. ECU is already chipped and running Crome, I will be using my wideband to street tune. What turbo/setup injectors etc. would you reccomend for the 400ish whp mark? I am a single cam guy and this twin cam ---- is sort of new to me. From what I gather the first thing to go should be the intake and maybe an Edelbrock in its place. I used block posts on my build but thought maybe a block guard would work fine for him. Before anyone gets into the block guards are bad debate, just stfu on that part and help a brutha out with a build. Thanks.

If there's cash left over, an intake manifold (AEBS is what I will be running, I have heard good things about the,), ITR cams and an upgraded valvetrain will all help.
If I had 4k at my disposal, that's pretty much what I would spend it on.

Manifold $100, Turbo $500, Oil lines $75, IC $120, Charge pipes $100, Wg $200 3" DP/exhaust $140 turbo kit=$1300ish

So 4k is used up quickly

If he just wants to make 400whp then you don't even need to touch the motor. Rods and pistons highly recommended but not needed.
Start with the turbo kit, find him a nice ramhorn or topmount, a nice big t3/t4, or T3/T67, Clutch,Intake manifold, intercooler, piping, and all the other misc. ----. Then go from there and decide what you want to do to the motor. Personally I wouldn't build another motor without sleeving it. If I could do it over I would have sleeved mine, oh well I didn't so too bad for me. So IMO go all out on the motor or don't touch it all, except maybe a new HG.

Don't be haste because you have that much money. Still spend wisely as if it were a regular build. If it were me:
General turbo things
Nice manifold
SC61 turbo
Rods/Pistons/Bearings/Studs/etc.
etc.
I don't feel like listing everything. You're not a n00b, you know alot of what is needed. I still think a new GT35r is a good way to waste alot of the money so look for a used SC61. I don't think it's any different from a D-series build really.

i think he is looking for a little more detail than :build and t3/t4"
Bizzar has a built d16, so he already realizes that this b18 needs to be"built" as well. i believe he is looking for a little more specific answers.
Derek, id run Eagles/Wisecos with a .63/.60 60trim, and a nice tubular turbo mani
