    what is valve floating?

    lets put it this way... the same people that say the b18b is stronger and that the vtec head isn't better for turbo are usually the same ones that say you can't turbo high compression motors.


    I'd rather have a turbo b18c than a b18b any day of the week

    True that...

    A blown b18c would hammer a blown b18b with the same turbo setup so easily with its hands tired around it back

    to give you guys an idea, rolling start i blew a stock gtr32 godzilla and a twin turbo supra. The supra guy then told me he ran a 13.3 at calder the week before.

    How much boost are you running GSI-PSi and

    1) How much power are you making at the wheels
    2) What is your best 1/4 mile time (post 60 foot and mph please)

    There's a few turbo dc2 vti-rs around here so i'd like to compare.

I now have a 13 second car lol... car #129

    i think he has a bucket full of it somewhere?

    seriosly folks, you are all getting it quite messed up.

    the ONLY reason a B18B might be "better" for boost is that it is lower compression STOCK.

    the rest of the engine is crap, the rods are weaker, the head is weaker, the whole engine is not designed for power, even the water pump is designed for low RPM/low power operation.

    now, a B18C - is desinged for higher RPM/higher power operation.

    the head is much stronger, the pistons better design, the crank is better, the engine is BETTER and it is NOT too high compression for turboing provided you have it tuned.

    now if you are going to REBUILD it with forged internals,

    there is NO way you would use a B18B over a B18C.

    ever.

    the ONLY reason you would use a B18B block was if you got it for $100, re-sleeved it and were using a Type R crank with aftermarket rods and pistons with Type R head...

    (fly-vti - there is no reson to get a crap GSi just to get slightly lower compression engine.)

    tinkerbell, you make it sound like a b18b is not worth boostin, but ey...look at mine for instance.
    every1 was puttin shit on my setup b4 theyve seen the power figures...and also stating that it wouldnt last a month, 5000km etc etc...
    now its been over 3months since gettin my car back, and its still going strong as ever, and the power figures are quite impressive to say the least.
    i rekon its worth every penny.
