Project Taking Shape.

Okay, well I now have a Mitsu TC04 Turbo & I went and got my ZC head today. Next week I will be getting Pistons/Rings/Gaskets for low compression & getting the head leveled with a valve job. The ZC head will be going on my D15B2 block along with my JDM Intake Manifold (bigger runners etc. :D ) Walbro Fuel pump B&M Fuel regulator and other extras for the turbo. Hopefully the car will be fully running within the next month & 1/2. Also my buddy at work today was telling me his friend has a "Frankenstien" Motor in his Acura or Civic, wtf is in that combo?

Frankenstein is an LS block with either a GSR or B16 head. It's often called an LS-R or LS VTEC swap....

Frankenstien is usually the LS/VTEC (B16A, or B18C1 (GSR) head on a B18B (Integra LS) block... But Ive heard people call the CR-VTEC also a frankenstein, which is the same heads, just using the B20B or B20Z (CR-V) block...

The CRVTEC is the Frankenstine on steroids

Some kid at school put his old integra on dyno and maxed it. 225+ WHP with crv-vtec N/A. probably more but dyno sucks and mx's out at 225. numbers not crazy but motor freakin huge.

lol, of course sohc. taking my zc head to the shop tommorrow for the valve job resurface & cleaning! Also ordering my pistons, rings, head gasket (for low comp.) and rod bearings. As for the TC04 that is the model number on my turbo, it is a much older mistu. turbo off of an 84 dodge colt. I might be odering a T3 though, we will see how things work out.
