it's not like you'll ever want to go back to an A anyway lolz

Will since you experianced it and know how much strain it is going to put down. Ill do it.Quote:

Also, my S1 trans was short enough on the highway, I can't imagine what a YS1 would be like... that must suck!
S1 is the shortest gearing of them all, i dont think the YS1 is as bad
Well then... hahaha. Maybe when I get my exhaust fixed it wont suck so bad on the highway, but right now its so damn loud at "highway" speeds.
Ys1 is pretty good or a b16 tranny which idk what the code is for those lol.
Found it....can't wait to see a vid of it running.
i should be running by jan. I have a good aid check coming Lol.
Well now I'm thinking going itbs. Either gsxr or cbr . Cbr have the same tps which make it simple to reformat on Crome . It seems cheaper the. Buying Itr intake an tb.
Honestly ITBs are awesome for all motor, but you have to really invest in a full setup. Fully built head, and block plus an amazing tune. If you don't have that then you are wasting your time. You can get an AEBS intake manifold (identical to the skunk 2, or type R), and be ready to go with a solid reliable setup for half the price.Quote:

But ill just get it I found some gsx r 1000s an cbr 935 or something like that for 60 shipped. I'm looking for a DIY type setup which I'm good at. I completey agree thou with your statmeant . But I'll just get it since it's so cheap to do.

Gridle just adds that extra security which is all up to you if you want to add it. Im not cause you would have to have it all redone at the machine shop and have a bigger oil clearance. B16a dont have a gridle and they rev to 8.5 all day its all in the rod bolts.Quote:

Only gsr's have gridles. ive been reading alot of lsv b20v setups an no gridle is needed for high revs just rod bolts cause they tend to loosen up and stretch out cause they cant withstand the rotating mass that is put on them. Save yourself the money an get some arp bolts total 50 bucks.
Sweet!! Can't wait. How much whp ya thinkin?
I'm about to venture into the b series motors my self. I'm soon buying a 92 civic 4 door that has a b18b1 in it and the blocks bad. I've been on my search and am prolly just goin to put another B18B1 in It. So someday if I can throw a B18C in it and run vtech I'll be figuring all this shit out too .
178ish who 200hp is my goal all motor
2 days son!
lol
