Big B Series Power!!!!

I was wondering what the most horsepower anybody has been able to safely squeeze out of a B series motor on pump gas is and how. I'm currently considering a nitrous/turbo setup with a reinforced bottom end. If my calculations are correct, I may be able to squeeze about 450 - 500 HP out of a B18B with pump gas. Has anyone ever seen a car like this on the street?

Re: Big B Series Power!!!!

on pump gas, its stretching it. to get 400whp on a b18b, you'd have to be boosting around 20psi or so, which, on pump gas is a stretch.

im sure it could be done with *very* good tuning on the dyno with a WB02 and EGT.

There's a 10sec. daily driven Civic around where I live. So you can have a damn fast car on pump gas.
