b18a build

[turbcivic]

Gonna build a b18a and put it into a 91 civic. Daily driven. Want to ahve power at the touch a switch so a 100 shot is gonna be put in. No my question is should 10:1 compression work? Gonna be going with Arias forged pistions but dont know about rods. What are the pro and cons of X-beam H beam, I beam, etc rods?

if your not going to be trigger happy with the switch then you can probably bump the shot up if your doing internals. a freind of mine runs a 100 shot at the track on a 95 b18b with stock internals and hes hitting low 13's and high 12's every once in a while

I thought about going turbo but i drive 60+ miles almost everyday. Nitrous won't be on all the time maybe once or twice a week so the engine won't be that abused

But 13 sec is my goal

13 seconds with all that audio equipment?

13.9 or better. My equipment only weighs about 200 lbs.
