I have a 88 4dr civic and i was wondering what kind od engine should i get do do street races. Like the B16 or B18 someone at school said something about that but i don't know.

Are you kidding me?? What did you get banned and create a new profile or something? For like the millonth time stop wasting everybodys time! This is exactly how yor other questions have been so far and all have been answered with full honesty @ first until you start making obvious lies.

[newbicivic89]

Whom are you and what are you talking about. Would soneone just please answer my question. Thank you.

You need to learn to do some research. And was it necessary to change your user name just because some people were making fun of you (because you lied)?

Realistically; it depends how much you're willing to spend and how much power you're looking for. Figure these questions out and then go from there. There are a ton of different ways you can go about making power, answering those questions will narrow it down greatly.

Well i know that i want to get a b18c and a turbo kit but i wanna know is will that be enough Hp to out run a V8 and will that blow my engine with stock parts (on the b18c).

[Schister66]

you can......well someone who knows what they're doin can build a GSR to outrun any V8 on the block. The problem is that you don't know what you're talking about and i REALLY doubt you have to money for a GSR.....let alone a built turbo GSR! You need to research so that you can post on AF w/o sounding like you don't know what you're talking about.


SEARCH!!

So if i get a b18c GSR engine and a turbo kit i can outrun a V8.

[CivicSpoon]

It's possible, definently no guarentees.

[Schister66]

What's your budget......that's really going to determine if you can outrun anything

[civickiller]

his budget is 10,000. his mommy gave it to him

[newbicivic89]

Yep so what can i do with that money that dosent have to cause me to change my engine bay around. cause i know i can get a GSR B18c Turbo cause she already told me ( my mom ) but i wanna know can that outrun a V8. Like blow it out the water or neck and neck in a street race. Cause i can do the swap my self and put the turbo on cause my friends dad is a mechanic so i got that coverd. I just dont want to have to change my engine bay around.

People who are too lazy to do a search and find their own answers, don't deserve help. Between these 2 combined threads, you have all the answers you need.

so you want to swap a b18c into a '88 civic, then turbo it, but you don't want to change around your engine bay. Hmmm, interesting.

[newbicivic89]

Do u think that i can put a H-series in my car without modification.

[CivicSpoon]

No, you won't be able to, and you probably wouldn't be able to do the swap. Stick with the b-series; though I believe you have to push out some of the engine bay a little to clear the alternator (or crank pulley?). If you're seriously thinking of doing this yourself, then you better start doing a ton of research (key word in research is search).
