internal questions

[I'm Gay on a harley]

okay, i have a 91 integra ls. i also have a b16a to work with. i am taking off the head and tranny off the b16 and putting it on my b18b. in the b16 head im going to get it ported and polished, i am putting gsr cams, KMS performance valve springs, KMS titanium retainers. in the block i am boring it 25 or 30 mm over i donno what will be safe i am also putting forged eagle pistons and rods, turbo/n2o rings, im not sure on what kind of crank i should put in there like a type r or a gsr or just get an oem one cuz i dont want to mess with my compression, the compression is beign lowered to 9:1. i was wondering if i should stick with the ls vtec set up or just keep the b16 and put those internals on there. i also plan on putting a dry 100 shot, t3 t4 turbo custom front mount. bigger injectors what size injectors should i go with? all the fuel up grades im going to have to save up for the aem management system 2k i dont have. what do u think i should do with the injectors? crank? keep the b16 or go ls vtec? what is the lowest compression i can go but still make a lot of power? thank you so much for your time very much appreciated

if you're gonna turbo dont bother with the lsvtec. just build the b18a for boost.

agreed

is that what is in my 90 ls? a b18a? and what your saying is just get all those things and put them in that engine? what kind of set up should i go for then? and what compression ratio should i go for? thanks

lower compression, higher boost. it's a trade-off. build your b18a and make sure you protect it well. that means sleeves, forged pistons, forged rods, and good air/fuel management. look into strengthening your mounts and replacing your essential tranny parts. get the turbo timer, and boost controller for added control. good luck and don't be an idiot with this build.

wiseco 9:1 compression pistons. should i go lower?
ported and polished head
25mm bore
ferrea valves
spot forged rods
kms valve springs
kms titanium retainers
should i put an oem gsr cam in there?
what kind of crank should i go for a gsr one or just keep it stock?

what do u mean when u say sleeve? and how much does that cost?

[I'm Gay on a harley]

what should i do for the are fuel? would that apexi super afc work?
p.s. im most deff going to get a turbo timer and boost controller, the manual boost controller sneak up on ya. my friend knows that cuz he had 30 psi on is wrx and his engine didn't like it so it died haha

you should search the turbo forums first. Alot of these questions are answered there. Not to mention the integra forum doesnt really specialize as good as the turbo forum.

Sleeving costs like... >1000

[acuradriva]

and you will def have to sleeve if you want to boost and run a 100 shot of nitrous which i still dont understand why you would want to do that.

wiseco 9:1 compression pistons. should i go lower? -depends, i would go down to 8.5 for lower boost

ported and polished head - good, but dont polish the intake, just port... port and polish exhaust

25mm bore

ferrea valves

spot forged rods- i would go with carrillo, but whatever

kms valve springs

kms titanium retainers

should i put an oem gsr cam in there? no. jun 3, or 4 for extreme performance, but you'll lose some streetability

what kind of crank should i go for a gsr one or just keep it stock? you want one thats a bit lighter, but at the very least, balance it

jun 3 and 4 cams are very aggressive NA cams. they will not work very well with a turbo.

yeah when you turbo you'll need turbo cams. Also if your going to turbo concentrait on that. Dont try to put vtec or nitrious on it b/c that will cost so much more time and money for very little gains compared to the power you can make just tuning your turbo setup. run slightly lower compresion, stock head, new pistons(maybe over-bore), new rods, sleeve the block and run crazy boost. You could boost like 20 psi and make like 300 hp.
