Hello everyone. I have been reading your forums for a while and finally decided to create an account.
So here we go.
I have a 2000 Civic EX. However I have a recently purchase a motor that has a B20 SiR bottom End and B16 SiR Head.
The motor has forged pistons/rods (however I do not know the compression ratios for the pistons) I believe its on a stock crank but I am not certain about that.
The head has been PnP with upgraded valves, springs, retainers don't know what brand though, it has upgraded cams don't know the brand I would possibly assume maybe skunk2 stage 2's maybe.
my friend originally bought it from the guy that had it before him and purchased the motor for $3000 plus a car worth $1500 which running motor ect
Well my friend ended up in a situation where he needed some money so I gave him $2000 and his helping me with the swap ( I originally had a D16Y8 junkyard motor with a junkyard greddy turbo kit running 8 psi).
We finally got the motor running in my car last night just for spark and fuel nothing else hooked up really except the axles.
But omg the motor is a beast. Before we put it in my car we rode in his delsol with it for a while and I'm telling you the motor is built no doubt about it. It feels and ofcourse this my opinion (hasn't been dyno tested yet will be soon though), it feels like its got somewhere around 220whp-250whp, I am guessing closer to 250whp.
But this thing is a monster. It revs hella high in the 9200 range with absolutely no problem. Very smooth revs and sounds great.
So heres my deal. I'm about to have around $9,000.00 besides the money I've already spent that I will be able to spend on getting my EX and my motor in top working order.
So I was planning on running hondata s300 and I really really want to boost it.
My goal is to get somewhere around 500whp
I plan on either driving it or trailering it down to CFT in orlando Florida, I live in Orange Park Florida so its only about 3 1/2 - 4 hours away from me.
I want them to install tuning software build a custom turbo kit tune it and dyno it and try to get as much power out the motor it can handle before blowing up lol.
So my question is this. Is there a way to find out what compression pistons I have without opening the motor (I am assuming theres not) I really don't want to open the motor because it doesn't leak anywhere. sealed up very nicely.
and what turbo would you recommend and how much boost you think I could run on it.
and keep in mind this is a project car. Its not a DD, my daily is a 2016 toyota camry se.
Any tips, questions, advice, and concerns are all welcome.
And by the way I searched all the topics to try to pic the right place to post this so I apologize if I posted in the wrong spot.
Thanks,
Daniel
