i want to know what would be better to do with the b18c5 engine.
Turbocharge it or supercharge it what type of resluits well i see if i turbo it or super it in ur guys opinon im highly debeting on witch to go with ive seen t/c cost the same a s/c so money not the issue its based on pure raw power and faster times on the 1/4 miler. and what well help me get lots of hp and tq and do the 1/4 fast as hell im going for pure speed. so witch is it s/c or t/c
and yeah whats better say that ur wanting to add nos to. whats better to go with and add this to the senario. t/c with nos or s/c well help plz damn i hate hard choice for the simple minded jk.
i know this probably isnt the answer you're looking for at all.. but i hate FI on b18c5's. those things are built for all motor.
but if you're really fixed on FI.. then i always have to suggest turbo. just make sure you have thing tuned before you start driving it around or you'll pop it in no time. and don't get boost happy
I hate to see a B18C5 engine with forced induction also. There are people that would kill for that thing in stock condition(me). Not only that, but its going to be a quarter miler(?!). Well, its yours so do what you want.
And now what you wanted to hear...
Turbocharging will be best for brute power.
actually this is the only engine i will ever suggest supercharging... i hate s/c, but turboing a b18c5 is just a sin... if you desperately wanna go turbo... talk to HKS about the twin charger.... super/turbo.... put 410 to the wheels... just insane...
Turbo on a B18C5 is incredible, the off boost response on the motor is outstanding, The power when boost is applied is very linear even with a larger turbo. If you are planning on going to the extreme I would just sell the B18C5 and buy a GSR motor and build it up. but if you want a very quick 300+hp daily driver I would suggest turbo on the B18C5 and engine management. that motor can live a long happy life with a conservative tune and good maintenance.
so if i go s/c would i want jrsc or some other brand what type of gains well i see from it and what type of times do i look at for the 1/4 miler and well is see the improvment.
