if ur looking for the most power, with the most reliable and the fewest dollars spent, then its gonna be turbo all the way, check my sig, i ran a drag gen 3 kit on a b18c1 made 359whp and had no problems for the year i drove it EVERYDAY. i did do internal work (im finding all my pics of it, will list all mods and pics later) but hondata tuned it made 359whp at secret services dyno in tampa fl, ill find the dyno sheet for all u doubters if u must know, also a good friend of mine (who eventually bought my turbo b18c1) had the 00 si with the greddy kit john aka blue hatch was talking about, he bought the car from me, added the greddy kit (18g turbo with the larger intercooler) ran 440 injectors and hondata tuned it at the same shop 264whp with a/c and power steering, he used that car as a daily driver until he bought my b18c and put it in, selling his b16 turbo wich is still running perfectly to this day in a 4 door civic, all motor is sweet, and that will be my next project, because ive never built one before, but power for dollar for reliablilty, turbo is DEF the way to go, boost 8psi on a stock motor and tune it correctly TUNING IS EVERYTHING and maintain the motor you will run as long as a stock motor will run IMO and i have done it before, not just my opinion from reading posts all my teenage years
stop hating..... your a noob 91b18hatch! i am new member to this CIVIC SITE but not a noob.... you 20 years old and you still watch cartoons.... you should kill yourself dragon baal Z... HAHA
This is not true at all! As many people have said while asking the same question "any mod that you perform will damage your engine to a certain extent". The fact that people hear about turbos being unreliable is also i myth. Most people that have trouble with a turbo setup are usually either running too much boost on stock internals or havent takin the time to get some good tunning done. The fact that your telling this person to swap the crv crank saying it will be more reliable than a turbo setup is proving that you dont know much about honda engines.Originally posted by edhgreatone
okay this isn't a question at all..... turbo is unreliable i don't want to hear if you do it right it is reliable because it isn't.... go all motor stroke it with the crv and that will give you 190 hp and 150 lbs of torque get cams and all that mess and you'll beat any shitty unreliable turbo
the people who are saying that all turbos are unreliable and N/A is deserve to be shot in the head... show some actual proof instead of just opening your mouths like f**king idiots. A well tuned turbo setup can be very very reliable plus it is much much cheaper than N/A....
show some hard proof you dumbass noobies before you start shooting off your mouth

doing mine NA. i agree turbos do deserve the respect and get more power. just my 2cents
cheaper = unreliable
i will laugh when you engine blows up and i say i told you so

very well put, either way you go make sure you research and don't take any short cuts.Originally posted by prophet
it's really up to you.. both can be fast and safe if done properly
proper tuning in a turbo goes a long way!!!!!!
And ill laugh when your 13:1 compression pistons slap your valves because of your aggresive cams.Originally posted by edhgreatone
