Hey all, ive come to the decision that I want more power, but love my ek too much haha. Im running an ek4 with a b16b and s4c box. I was looking to turbo that but after some research on this brilliant forum, it seems the b18c4 is a much more practical route, and cheaper as I can flog the b16b for $$
This is also my daily driver so im after reliability>all out power
Need to clear some things up though..
Can I use my s4c box with the b18c4? Its a good box and has the LSD and dual syncromesh gears
Will my Intake manifold fit on the b18? a few people on here have said the standard one isnt very good.
What turbo kits can you recommend?
I'll be fitting this myself. Never done one before but im a mechanic for the raf and have good facilities and a colleague who will help.
I want to run standard internals until I can afford to up the power more. Im after 250+bhp but ideally aiming for 300. plan using a s300 to run the engine and forking out on a damn good tune.
I also have a fujitsubo exhaust with a cat welded in after the header. will I have to replace that? or will a custom downpipe work?
Finally im used to running the B on 99ron fuel. the b18's designed to run on 95 but as its "modded" I wouldnt say heavily but still twice standard power, would you reccomend running it on 99?
Sorry its long, thanks guys!
