Turbo B18C1 Civic

[davehewitsonuk]

Hi guys,

im new to these forums, and ive just got a few questions for you.

I am getting a Civic HB (probably 5th or 6th gen) sometime after Christmas. I am thinking of getting a B18C1 engine swap, and turbo.

1) Where in the UK or Europe can i get a B18C1 swap?

2) If i was to get the Greddy Turbo kit, would i get the Integra GSR one? Also for parts such as the exhaust and intercooler, would i buy Civic Or Integra ones?


I would be willing to travel to places such as germany, belgium to get these.

thanks

Dave

for the engine and all your other questions, you could try Intertuning. They are by my knowlidge the only company in Belgium that do engine swaps. Their site and email is in the list on top of this forum.

BTW: I know a B16 turbo for sale. Pushing somewhere around 379 hp. The engine came out of a Del Sol. I can give you the link if you want, but the text is in Dutch.

the email of the seller

There wasn't a price set yet.

I can be wrong with this...

But with your question on what intercooler, I think the same intercooler will work for most B series with the same cc.

As for the exhaust. I think you need the Civic one. Otherwise you will have fitment problems.

But again, I could be wrong. Best bet is to contact some professionals.

Yes it really does, and with not much weight to the car you will be verry fast
What will you be using the car for, real racing or just everyday driving?

It needs to have piping that will meet he GSR IM, most of the time you have to mod the bumper to fit them anyway.
