Hey, my name is Joey. I have a 96 integra that is getting boosted.
I had a 363whp civic that I parted with a couple years ago and decided to build another honda/acura.
To start the thread off, here are a few pics of the car before I took the motor out. The car is in decent shape. After I get under the hood taken care of, I will get the body looking good.
When I bought the car it started heating pretty bad and I noticed there was oil in the coolant. I hauled off the head to change the head gasket and to my surprise, 4 of the head bolts were loose and I took them out with my fingers. Turns out, the block was stripped. I was only planning on driving the car for a couple more weeks before I started ripping it apart anyways, so it wasnt too bad.
So, I hauled out the rest of the motor and tranny. It must have been leaking oil for a long time before I got it because the engine bay was well lubed lol. A few hours took care off it pretty good though.
So, I knew I was going to turbo the car but I couldnt decide what engine to use. I was thinking about using a stock b18b and bolting on a basic turbo kit just to get it mobile again. Then I found a deal on a b18b block that came with a set of srp pistons and eagle rods. Nothing was put together yet and the block was already bore out to 81.5mm (pistons were 81.5mm too).
So my plans were to just use my old b18b head on the new block I purchased, but I came across a good deal on a gsr head.
I never liked the gsr intake manifolds for some reason so I pick up a skunk2 pro series manifold. It should flow allot better than the stock one.
So then I took my block to a machine shop to get it assembled. I never put a crank in before so I figured I would leave it to a professional. they polished my crank and ordered all new bearings and rings. The pistons were used but still looked new. They must have only been in the motor for a little while.
Now here is where I got confused. My pistons are 10:1 compression pistons. and with the gsr head on that block it would be even higher. (I calculated around 10.5:1). So I did some research but couldnt find much information or any straight answers. I know I can use a thicker head gasket to lower the compression. I had to get a custom gasket from cometic made for an lsvtec that is .074" thick. This should bring me close to 9:1.
(I dont know much about compression and im not even sure if I am remotely close to being right. Any help in this area would be awesome)
I had my plans for the motor now, and I wanted to push around 420whp on pump gas. It will be drivin on the street allot and at the track on weekends. This was a budget build so I was buying most of my parts used or looking for good deals.
I picked up some ARP Headstuds. I needed to used the gsr head studs for the lsvtec.
AEM 5.2 bar map sensor. a stock honda map sensor is only good for 11 psi (around there somewhere I can remember exactly but i know stock is not enough for me haha.)
1000cc Precision injectors. I went bigger then I needed because on my last turbo car I bought 3 sets becuase I never bought them big enough.
I picked up this big intercooler from a local guy. He ran over 530whp@27psi on it and it held up.
Competition stage 5 clutch kit
Golden Eagle lsvtec conversion kit
38mm Tial wastegate
blitz bov
In this pic, you can see the 3" kteller exhaust and custom 3" downpipe.
The turbo is a garrett 60-1. It has a stage 5 cw
.63 hot
.70cold
I think it should meet my goal no problem
on my last car I tried to keep the engine bay clean but it would always leak oil out of the cam seal like most b searies motors seem to do, so I bought the aftermarket cam seal to keep things clean and dry.
The turbo manifold I dont have a good pic of yet. Its a custom made manifold that I bought from a guy on honda-tech. I dont have much info on it but its pretty beefy.
I had a set of 24.5x8x13 M/T slicks that I bought for my old turbo civic, I just need to buy a set of rims to put them on now. There is still a few seasons left in them for me.
Right now, since I live in Canada, its getting pretty cold and its time to park the car winter anyways. I decided not to rush it together right now. Im going to clean everything up over the winter and pick up some more parts I never got around to getting yet.
I like the polished look under the hood, so I started polishing the valve cover. I still have allot of work to do on it but its starting to shine a bit.
I cleaned up my power stearing pump and painted my brackets gold. (have to have a little rice haha)
I also painted my fuel rail and spark plug cover. I didnt know if I would like it but I think I will. Im not going to go crazy and paint everything but a few little things should make it look good imo.
The head itself was caked full of oil too so I cleaned up the head and tapped it for the plug (for the lsvtec kit)
So that brings us up untill now. I ordered a set of AEM cam gear that didnt come in yet. I still need a walbro255 fuel pump, new timming belt and water pump, gauges, and a few other things that I cant think of right now.
I know the spelling sucks, but i am sitting in the dark on a laptop so that dont help to much haha.
I will keeps this updated as I get more done.

Awesome power goal; it's also my favorite setting when preheating the oven, lol.
Looks like you've got the funds to do this right, good luck my man.
