Vtec-mb6 Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Hi guys..im going to be stripping my vti B18C4 over the next year for a turbo conversion ive read alot into it n im forging the bottom end (pistons/rods maybe even the crank) i know im looking for a reliable 400bhp when im done..i aint got a clue were to look for sleeves/lo comp pistons driveshafts clutches intake manifolds turbo injectors cams valves etc etc..dont get me wrong theres alot kickin about but non that seem to claim there capable of handling the power for a c4 engine.as i want a propa build not just a bodge job..all other sundries like fuel rail..pump and all other stuff is easy to get hold of.jus the others listed above..its a big ask but has anyone got any ideas or links of who can point me in the right direction with parts and compresion ratios etc etc..????thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civicturbo79 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 For all the engine parts you will be best to get them from the states . I delt with one company and got the lot imported over in one go . It cost me about £2500.Darton sleeved b20 block (done in the states)Wisceo pistons 8.4 to 1 ratioEagle rodsAcl race big end and main bearingscometic headgasketArp head studslightened flywheelstage 4 ,6 plate paddle clutchhondata inlet and exhaust manifold gasketGreddy timing beltRich.

civicturbo79 Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 They dont because the states dont have a b18c4 . But all the b18 stuff is the same . as for sleeves agsin the start at 81mm and you bore them to the cc you want and then get pistons to match. you need to sit and read mate thats all there is to it .you need to understand what it is you want and then ring brice and trll him what you want . he was spot on with me and the service was 100%.
