I thought B18c1 wasa good boost motor. Even if your going N/A it still had some good Tq. 540Whp is PLENTY for a street car. 300 is plenty for a light car such as a civic.

Not a smart idea to boost it because it has a higher compression ratio The b18c5 has an 11:1 ratio

your gonna need to do more than that if your boosting for serious power.
your going to need to sleeve the block and get bigger fuel injectors, true aftermarket engine managemen, new intake, exhaust and probably performance engine mounts (like $$$ hasports) to keep the engine from ripping your cars engine bay apart.
