the B18B block is actually quite good for turbocharging as it has lower compression then the B18C. for 10K that'll include forged pistons and maybe even shot-peened rods...depending if u wanna go that far! but you should be able to do within 8K. it all dpends on what u want and how far you're willing to push the limits...

Daily driven my arse...
It's sat in their workshop for 3 years too...

Could anyone suggest what I could do getting more power into a GSi without getting it turbo'd?
The first thing I am doing is changing my tranny to manual.

I got this priced for my Teg its $1000 a second they wanted $14500 for this set up but includes Vtecing my motor.

Integ LS, whoever ur going wtih doesnt know hondas then man....

As for linear power this crap and that crap, u might hvae goen boosted [acronym:e6a9f6eb7e="Front Wheel Drive"]FWD[/acronym:e6a9f6eb7e] before, yer, in ur dreams. Linear my A$$, check out any of my mates b16a motors that are boosted, they look linear enough to me, oh adn they also make 30kws more than ur gay linear OMG dont TURBO this religous [acronym:e6a9f6eb7e="Valve Timing and lift Electronic Control"]VTEC[/acronym:e6a9f6eb7e] NA machine YO!

Thats no internals.

Cost is around $10,000 if you want it done properly.

for what it is worth, i get 121kw out of a stock internaled B20VTEC

cost = 8000ish (DIY)
