Well, 250+ is really pushing it on stock internals, especially on a DD. I would suggest either sticking to around 200, or doing some internal work..

 

I heard the b18b1 can handle 300hp on stock internals, but I could be wrong. Even 200-230whp would be fine.

^ depends on how good of tune you have

 

Well I'll have to get a good tune then. As for piecing my own kit together, what brands would you guys recomend and what size of turbo, intercooler should I be looking at for my stock b18b1? I guess anything over 200HP would be great.. as long as I get a huge BOV that's loud lol (theres a little rice in all of us).

T03/04 turbos seem to very popular these dayz and can produce nice horsepower. u will notneed an expensive nor big intercooler for for 200-230 horsepower. when designing ur kit be sure to take in account fuel mangement (injectors, pump etc) or else ur car will run like s*** ( i learned that the hard way) good luck

 

for an LS motor dont shoot for 250whp unless u wanna replace your motor(stock internals). Just get a mitsu t28(or similar) and run ~10 pounds and be happy. You can easily peice a turbo kit together for under 1000 if u know what to look for and where.

 

stock fuel pump is fine. stock fuel lines/rail are FINE. Just get dsm 450's and a honda resistor box.

 

My bad dude, I must have missed that part when I read your message the first time,didnt realize you were working with a b18

 

No prob man. You can make it up to me by getting that turbo of urs in tip top shape and making some videos for us!! haha. I'm going to print out that whole page on beesandgoats and hopefully learn quite a bit. I've basically got the money to start piecing together my kit so the quicker I learn the quicker ill have my turbo! Talk about motivation.. I wish school could be more like this.

A 14B or a 16G will support you needs and can be had fairly cheap. I got a buddy with a EVO 16G with under 1000 miles on it forsale for $300
