11.1 compression@8lbs JRSC(B18c1)

[Racing Hartless]

I got a shop to sponsor me and he has a dyno which is good. I need to order pistons for my b18c1. 11.0:1 with Hondata or AEM sound good or should I stick to stock compression? It will be well tuned either way. Usefull input will be appreciated. Thanks

JR Civic gave me the go ahead so I guess thats a good sign. [img]wink.gif[/img]

Im very interested in the results. Please post them once you are through. With a good fuel curve, I bet you'll see good gains.

[Racing Hartless]

I hope so too. I will post when complete.

Im at 10:1 compression now. Did you have engine management at the time?

My current setup yields 10:4 CR with 9 psi... BUT I have one hell of a tuner in JRCivic [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

It's ALL in the tuning.

Boosted, what would your 1/4 mile times equate to?

and the gasoline you run. If you can only get 91-92 octane, I don't recommend that setup.

RacingHartless: My times roughly equal a low 14 sec 1/4 mile: 14.0-14.1.

Marc: You're absolutely right! I forgot to add that I use 93 Octane ALL the time hehehe.......

We was tuning with a Haltech e6k ECU.

IMO not worth the 10whp going from 10:1 to 11:1. All the work and hassels you have. Also the 10:1 engine run more healthy with 8psi than with 11:1.

I think my engine was weak already, cause I drove the hell out of it within 1 year boosting 5.5psi. 2 hour runs in 5th gear boosting all the time and doin 130 - 150 mph on the German Autobahn and stuff like this.

My old charger is running on a B18C1 engine boosting 5.5 psi and making 182whp. Only with cartech FMU and 310cc injectors, all STOCK! No bad numbers IMO, only on 5.5psi.

Yup, JRcivic can teach some other guys a tuning lesson.
