JDM B18C + mods?

[_Dee]

So ive recently bought myself a jdm integra si vtec with the b18c and was wondering how much power i would be making at the wheels seeing as its stated to make 132.39kw or so at the flywheel. So if i put in:

- J's racing carbon fibre intake + custom heat shield box ( or something like that )
- Buddy Club Racing Spec Camshaft - Spec IV (B-Series)
- Buddy Club Spec 2 exhaust
- Buddy Club Racing Spec Headers or JDM ITR 98 spec 4-1 Headers
- Skunk2 Intake Manifold

What would the expected power at the wheels be? any ideas?

Are you going to tune the car with the camshafts?

My guess would be 115-125kw atw Depending on the overall health of your engine aswell.

yes i am =) and damn, never knew it was so hard to get power out of a NA =[, im new here so yeh

I've got a b18cr in my ed9 crx and I have a straight through 2.5" zaust, headers, bigger throttle body, clutch, gearbox and all that jazz but I'd have to say the most output I'd get would be from the APEXi tuning comp. Also have a heavy duty button Clutch makes a fair bit of difference not so much in power output but in gear changes it makes a whole lot of time different.
Also weight reduction with the b18cr makes a fair amount of difference as long as you still have enough above the front wheels.

oh alrights, sorry for lag reply comps been out. I have an older mate who told me the max i would prob get is around 140ish kw with a completely built b18c, so contemplating on if i shud go down that road and mod or .... yeh >.>

Sell off the B18c and go to a K-series. You will make 145-150k on standard motor with boltons

the money for a k-series swap would cost me an arm and a leg atm... and i want to buy black ops =D hahaz. Ill get a k-series swap if i can win alot at roulette tonight xD

swap out your bottom end to B20B8 , add at least ITR camshaft will see you make 130kw++ plus you will have more torque

Why do ppl think K-swap is so expensive? Do you research ppl. It isnt much more than a B18c with all bolt ons. A B18c swap with Intake, header, exhaust, ecu + tune will cost you close to 8-9k. You will make 120-125kw
A k-series swap will cost you 11-13k and you have 140-145kw.

If your going to build the B18c or swap out to a B20 bottom end, you'll be looking at least 4-5k. You will only end up with 130-140kw at most from a mild built B-series

what bennys trying to say is.

dont be a tightarse or just go buy a hyundai.

blow ur b18c = 2.5k to replace the long block.
blow your k24 = 1000-1700 to replace the long block.

epic win. go k series. you will never regret it.

if u need the parts ask me as i got all the parts for the complete k swap into a dc2 with me that i will be selling in a few weeks time ;)
