Ditch the blox lcas and get function 7 other then that good choices on the parts you've made

I shall second.

Plus you better have some bucku buck if you want to do everything on this build.

 

[BrakeLights]

get a swaybar to go with that asr. Something like a asr/ctr/itr one would be a good match

well, its going to be gradual. i have just bought my EM1 about a month ago and am right now in progress of replacing OEM items.

Edit: Function 7 makes two kinds regular i assume and "Type-r"style. each has to different kinds as well. standard and sphereicle bearing type. which should i look into for daily use? sphereical bearings seem like a little much. i see they also make a subframe brace now (new) would you guys suggest that over ASR?

 

[Kensai]

b16s don't make 215whp on all motor. stock compression especially lol. You don't need a new fuel pump for 215whp either way

 

[BrakeLights]

I would spend the extra for spherical, its worth it in my opinion.

x2. no point in getting an ASR brace if you don't upgrade the rear sway bar

b16s don't make 215whp on all motor. stock compression especially lol. You don't need a new fuel pump for 215whp either way

x2 again. you'll need to rebuild the block with way higher compression (maybe even bore and/or stroke it out) to get 215whp.

yea you don't need that fuel pump, maybe not even those injectors either. you didnt mention anything to tune the motor on, btw...?

 

[KT RYU]

the 215 is actually a typo, i ment 180 WHP.
also i did leave out the tune. either chrome or ubrdata is what the local speed shop is generally good at. i was also going to leave my stock sway? if not, any recomendations?

 

[Szady]

Not trying to start anything...but how does 215 and 180 get messed up in a typo? They arent even close. Especially on a keyboard...

Sway bars
Civic Type R - 22mm
Integra Type R - 23mm
ASR - 24mm

any of those would go well

 

[Billy.]

go 45mm or go home

easy! i was typing a turbo build up at the same time, my goal for the turbo build was 215. i just got the two mixed up! lol

 

[JohnS.]

If you're going to invest that much into a B16, I would rather much go with a K-Series at that point...

 

[KT RYU]

K's are really hard to come by in my area. and i would have to drop about 6K all at once. where-as i can get the (motor) parts locally for about 3-K

 

[Szady]

Then why not go with atleast a B18C1 GSR motor. More displacement, and more potential for more power. I dont see why people spend 3k on a 1.6lt....

 

[C-M-CUM-EM1]

Good luck bro, chrome ecu tune would do great until you can get a dyno tune, I just got mine on not long ago and its great

 

[somejaykid]

good luck with the project man
