compression?

im not sure about wat compression i should use for the B20 im thinkin 9.1:1 But could i go 10:1 safely on 13 pounds of boost?

depends on the tuner

well its gonna be tuned by Shue which is the people that did marcus hydes civic. and ive seen his run 13 pounds on stock compression. but ima change the compression.

Its a full race turbo kit. its a t3/4 turbo.

think about all the b16s that are boosted on stock comp theyre like 10.5:1 or something like that. and they love it. like some one said its on the tuner and how much your shoving in there. 13# on 8.5:1 is alot different than 10:1

If you don't know what he's talking about then you're not ready to boost. Either do some research, or take your car to a performance shop and say "I want turbo and I want this much horsepower" and let them figure it out...

Here is a good explanation of a/r and trim...

Dude wiked, you just made my searching day! I've been looking for information like that for a few days. I'm trying to educate myself more on turbo's and yes, you just helped out immensely. Enjoy the rep!

EDIT: Dude, I would kiss you now if I were fruity. HAHA! That little, simple explanation that he gave just explained a LOT to me! Someone give this man a cigar and more rep for me!

what are honestly going to do with the car? ( road race , auto cross , street , drag , speed trials . we all love honda but they are not all around supercars , a built 11 second drac civic , kinda sucks ass to drive in heavy traffic , and just blows for auto cross . ect ect ect .), That should be your starting point for how you build the car . also if you can't afford to break it don't do it .

its gonna be a drag car on the weekends and a low boost dd during the week.
