Default Boost hungry

Hey folks, Im new here. I have a 94 DX Coupe. It has a few mods to the engine, but now i wanna swap. So i was gunna throw in an H22 but it has so much torque i think it may be nuts?? what do you think? and i really wanna boost, lots. so i think a b18c would be a good engine??? if i do ill change out the internals. thanks guys and girls

You dont even need to ask the question... go to engine and internal or run a search for this... I think you'll hear that for your gen of civic the b18 will be cheaper but you're still gonna have to drop some cash.

Whats your budget and what kind of power are you looking for? A DOHC stock honda engine with ARP headstuds will easily lay down 225 whp on a good tune. It doesnt sound like much, but 225whp in a honda is a 13 second car, easy.

(ya i know i have ITB's and my name is "boost") anyway, im saving now, should have about 6k for the swap and parts. this d15b7 i have now has 102hp so how much is that at the wheels...85hp? so im looking for around 300hp to the wheels, am i dreaming here?

Not at all. Id get a B18B, get forged rods and pistons and a mild turbo cam. This, along with a good set of fuel injectors, and a strog fuel pump........300WHP will be nothing.
