ok so Im getting alot more back on me taxes than i thought. With this Im thinking of upgrading the b20a's bottom end. With pricing things out raceeng has the best prices. in piston sizes, what do you think,
stock bore, clean up hone and 9.0:1 pistons
.5mm overbore and 9:1 pistons
or go for the gold, .5mm overbore and 10:1 pistons
all parts will be aftermarket forged and probably the eagle crank if it is lighter than stock. Im sure its stronger just by materials used. Im going turbo and the car will be street strip and hopefully very driveable.
My favorite part of these accords is they drive like a honda, start everytime, little maintence and just all out fun. Id like to keep this in place with the engine build.
Im also wondering about the durabilty of honda bearings for the crank and rods. You think I should go honda or aftermarket? Everything else I buy its mostly honda branded but are there bearings up to the punishment?
Ill start a head build thread later when i get around to it.
