Hi guys im new and I've just posted on the new user thread.
I have a few questions and im new to the honda game so take it easy on me if i sound like a noob or anything
1st question.
if there is such thing as a b16b JDM type r competition clutch stage 1? because when i got the car the guy I bought it from said that the car had it on the car?
whats been really bugging me lately is the lack of forged low compression pistons, and forged rods to go along with the b16b block.
I've been reading alot about swaps but none of the swaps include converting the b16b into a low compression engine for boosting, ive even been reading from clubintegra.com, but I still keep running into walls... it also could be the fact that im not a huge engine tech guy so its hard for me to know what swaps into what directly but I am learning slowly.
The closest ive seen was that the b16b is the same block as the GSR and JDM ITR. thing is, how do i obtain the compression ratio of the GSR?
can i swap the crankshaft and add the forged rods and pistons and boom there is my low compression boost ready engine or what?
im looking for something that will let me keep vtec but have low compression between low 9:0.0 or low 10's
any info would be great and please be direct
