yeah egt is a good idea. I'm worried about off boost performance because i'll be breaking in the motor NA and i'll probably keep it that way for a while until i can save up for all my boost goodies. So i don't want it to be a complete pig. I think i might just go with the 9:1 pistons though just...

yeah i figured as much, i'm just wondering how much off boost power i'm going to lose by droping my compression 1.4 points

well i think i'm gonna go with CP because they seem nice and i don't want to go though custom stuff and whatnot, and this build needs to be semi affordable. Now the question is, compression. Yeah i only said 9.6 to 1 cause that's what my D is. I don't wanna run low low compression cause i think...

yeah i've heard praise and shit about CP. Some people are like oh they're the best machined and balanced pistons you can buy, and other people say they're tolerances are loose. But most people say they're quiet, and that SRP's and arias pistons are like driving a TDI jetta. Just wanted to get...

yeah, if it were't for crazy fucks like josh we'd never have LS/VTEC :p

What are you guys running for pistons? I was gonna get a set of SRP's but now i'm having second thoughts. Some people are telling me to spend a little more for CP pistons because of the superior balancing, and say they operate quieter. I'm not a little bitch, but i don't want my built motor to...

yeah i'm gonna have them match the pistons and all that jazz. The prices he quoted me are the absolute maximum too and he guaranteed they'd be cheaper. Think i might assemble the bottom end myself but i haven't decided (i'm an auto tech stutudent so i know how to do it just not sure if i want...

any thoughts on the budget type r valve train or balancing?

Well i went to a machine shop that my instructor recommended, said they do awesome work. They do a lot of hondas too which is also nice. Here's the prices he quoted me, wanted to see what you guys think. He said this is absolute maximum pricing depending on what needs to be done... Block wash...

yeah he got a lot of shit on HMT about it because he hit 389 horse instead of 400, and then blew it like 2 weeks later.

aside from the fact that josh blew his motor :blink:

how did you re wire the altenator? i'm assuming you just took the plug for it, and repinned the stock plug to fit (or somehting similar?) Yes i need the transmission T bracket. Name your price

i already have an OBD conversion harness from when i was running my P28 w/crome. Plus i have the ecu for the motor, and i was under the impression that i could change the plug on the civic wiring harness to the plug for the OBD1 alternator. Also, i believe the y8 has a knock sensor, and the...

ok i thought that was the case, i can live with that yeah it's JDM yo. Umm i think i'm just gonna convert it to OBD 1 for the time being because i plan on running the stock ecu, and then a chipped P28 once i boost it. But i heard keeping my engine harness is the way to go. Luckily i have an...

Yeah i feel bad for HST. Nice people but the place is a ghost town lately.

HA^ Yeah i know this has probably been posted 439843 times, but i can't find it. I'm new (check the lonuge for my intro), and i have an 00 civic ex, working on putting an SiR 2 swap in it. Got a pretty good idea about what's going on aside from the distributor. What wires go where exactly...

no shit i think i rememeber you! don't you have a red eg with a b series in it?

Hey all, i'm will. I'm also a member of homemadeturbo.com, clubek.net, and HStuners.com (yes i know i'm a whore). However i just got a b16 Sir2 and i'll be throwing it in my 2000 civic ex and it seems this is the only place that will be able to answer my questions (plus i despise honda tech). So...
