Well this is my first post here, though i have been lurking on this board for a year or so. Anyway my car should be back on the road in no more than 2 weeks so i should have some stuff to talk about now. The car is a 00 civic si, stock b16a head, sleeved 84mm gsr block, eagle rods, je pistons, jrsc (not sure what boost pressure i will see, my kit came with a 4.2 inch blower pulley and i am throwing on the crv crank pulley with he new build), Clutch Masters stage 3 clutch and lightweight flywheel, quaife lsd in b16 tranny, hondata 2b, dsm 440's, walbro 317, ghetto homeaid intake for now, dc 4-1 header, evolution 2.25 cat back. That it for the new build. Still no gauges though. [img]graemlins/thumbs_down.gif[/img]
old setup: stock b16a2, jrsc 4.2" blower pulley, dc 4-1, aem cai, evolution exhaust, walbro 317 fuel pump. No times or #'s for the old setup, but i was running a tiny bit slower than my friends e36 M3 if that gives anybody an idea. Also had a few mid 14 sec g-tech passes if anyone gives a shit for g-tech times [img]wink.gif[/img]

With a 4.2" pulley I doubt you will see more than 5-6 psi but that is a great place to start from.

You need to go 2.5". Your motor is being choked IMO.

vtecvoodoo, yeah i plan on upgrading the entire exhaust system but for now its what i have to work with. i still owe like 2 grand on the motor, everthing else is paid for though. Next thing is some gauges, i was tryin to save up for the defi ones but i will probably go with autometer for now so i can monitor some vitals.

I'm guessing 6-7 psi with the CRV crank pulley. I'll have my engine swapped over here soon (if it doesn't rain) [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hi BXSI
How's your set up coming along? Why didn't you go the B20 route? Wouldn't that have been cheaper to get the CRV engine and take it from there? I am thinking of going this route myself.
Thanks.

Correction, with a CRV crank pulley and a 4.2" blower pulley you should see as high as 7 to 8 PSI dependiing on how free flowing your exhaust is. It will spin the alternator a little bit faster but that's nothing to worry about. You should make some really good #'s with that setup.

it's actually coming along pretty good, i originally planned on having a shop do most of the work for me, but he lost his lease on the shop so i took matters into my own hands and have been working on it myself in my spare time when the weather is nice. The b20 route is ok, but i really didn't want to keep stock sleeves plus the rod/stroke ratio is a little better with the gsr block than the crv.
92sleepR how exactly are you calculating what i would be boosting, i need a basemap burned soon so i would really love to know a good estimate on what i would be boosting..thanx
BTW i have a bunch of pics on how it is coming along, if anyone wants to host them for me let me know.
