If you're referring to mine, the block is built too haha :P
with just headwork (cams/valvesprings) I was at 110kw. 139kw with further headwork, forged pistons and rods and boltons.
But yes I 100% agree!! Don't swap out for ITR engine if you already have a B18C2. The gains are not worth what people want for the engine. $4k for an ITR engine will fund the works for your engine and make better power. Average stock ITR engine with moderate kms generally makes 110kw-115kw atw. you can get that from cams, bolt ons and tune easily, if not more.
I have thought of just getting a type r gearbox but no one wants to sell it without the engine
what cams and valve springs did u go with? and how much would it set me back
put new tyres on it, it will make it faster (Y)
around corners.
Get the b16 gb short ratios and some head work add more bolt ons and let it be until you get your Fulls unless you buy a type r
jackson racing have some nice items you may be interested in :)
honestly it depends what u want from it if u just want more power for no reason its kinda hard to make recommendations as we could recommend stupid shit and make it totally un streetable but if your competing in WTA then that may be fine for you..
Going from C2 to C7 is a gain of about 13kw (at the fly) and torque stays about the same iirc...(Please correct if wrong)
$4k is a lot to spend for 13kw...
What do you want to use the car for?
$4k can leave a lot of change left over after getting you coilovers etc. and new wheels to improve handling and/or look...
As others have said it can also take you down the path of doing some engine work which will see you get gains...
Or you could get a B16 box as others have suggested which could help eeek out the most from the engine you've got.
Get a 4.9FD or ITR GBox.
Or some cams.
im thinking of going 4.9FD
cams and a hondata
if I can fit that in my 3.5k budget im currently looking around online
