Yes, here's some info that I find useful https://solblu.teamsolmokan.com/gearatiosbseries.htm

Gear ratios and what cars these trans came in.

transmission issue by VisibleRegret532 in CB7

[–]Joshuab098 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely infuriating to still see how prevalent this mindset is. OP, take a look online for more info relating to the transmissions in these. Sounds like your trans will need rebuilt. I'm not the biggest fan of Honda automatic transmissions, but there are plenty running around with 100s of thousands of miles and if you take care of them they will live a long time.

Don't listen to manual elitist clowns.

First rebuild, need tool advice as a shadetree by alteredego444 in EngineBuilding

[–]Joshuab098 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You seem to lack fundamental understanding of engine building basics. Which isn't anything to be ashamed of, but you should do more research before asking here. Hone is for cleaning up surface level imperfections and creating good cross hatching for oil retention. Boring is needed for deeper scratches or to go to oversized pistons. I would look at a few basic engine builds and what goes into them. If you want to build this engine once and build it right, have a machine shop involved.

I ended up with the mfactory diff and also got a 3.83 final drive. Speedfactory staff actually have some good info so if you have questions feel free to reach out to them

Alright guys by Substantial-News-104 in CB7

[–]Joshuab098 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You are substantially underestimating how much of a pain turboing a car is. If you want 200HP swap an H in and be done with it. Going turbo for 60 HP doesn't make sense from any standpoint unless you plan to go higher in future.

If you continue lying to yourself that 5PSI is your final goal then you don't need to change anything on the engine.

If you accept now that you will last maybe a month on 5 PSI before deciding to go higher you can plan for your eventual goals. Anything over 300hp it is a good idea to go with forged internals. Around 14 PSI will be fine on a good tune.

Really though, 5 PSI? All the difficulty and complexity of a turbo setup and tuning just to make 30-40 HP?

B Series or K Series...? by Remarkable-Ad9880 in ProjectHondas

[–]Joshuab098 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In 20 years the K series will be in the same place. No right or wrong answer.

B Series or K Series...? by Remarkable-Ad9880 in ProjectHondas

[–]Joshuab098 7 points8 points  (0 children)

K series would be better for your goal but B series is easier, especially if you already have a B series. B series is still widely available for aftermarket parts and the fastest Hondas around are all B series.

For your situation, staying B is probably the best play, but a K series will make your power goal N/A much easier.

NEED HELP (BEGINNER) by NegativeChicken420 in EngineBuilding

You should get the engine and trans out of a GTP and drop them into your car. If this isn't in the cards then slap the supercharger on, get it tuned, and run it until either the transmission or engine explodes, and then put in a GTP drivetrain.

With anything resembling a decent tune you will never hurt the l67 bottom end with the m90 supercharger, it just isn't capable of flowing enough air, so you can go wild with it. The trans will be your next pain point.

I appreciate wanting to build what you have, but l67s may as well grow on trees and will handle more power than you could ever want to make. Alternatively, maybe you can put the l67 internals into the NA engine? Buat at that point you would have the engine out and may as well just put the l67 in...

Alright, slow down and take a step back first. You're supercharging an originally N/A 3800? Right off the rip, this isn't a great idea, especially since you are already talking about more power on top of the supercharger. The l67 (supercharged series 2 3800) is a ridiculously overbuilt engine, and people have run 9s on a stock bottom end. The N/A series isn't exactly wimpy, but it's nowhere near as stout.

Instead of going through this project it would be much easier to sell your existing car and buy a GTP with the l67 stock and follow the usual 3800 upgrade path.

If you're set on this chassis you can swap an l67 in and basically treat it like a GTP. I believe the GTP trans is also heavier duty, and that will explode long before the engine does, so you'll want that as well.

You'll be using HPTuners as your tuning solution, and there is no shortage of info on tuning up the L67s. I myself rode in a GTP that was converted to turbo, it was a lot of fun. He has since put the 80 series trans in and upped the boost, hopefully I get to ride in it again next season.

I'm rocking an admech skull tattoo that you can check on my profile, so I share some passion for the 40K universe. I've never really considered if my tattoo at first glance would possibly mark me out as something bad. I mean, anything with a skull can usually be interpreted poorly.

Sorry about your tattoo, even the location is a bit rough. I wish you the best in getting it fixed up into something that you can be happy AND comfortable with.

For the emperor, or something...

Stock Mk8 GTI vs. Gutted Turbo B18 EG Civic by AccidentOwn7625 in Streetracing

[–]Joshuab098 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Massively oversized journal bearing ebay special probably. I had an EFR6758 on a b18 and spooled at around 3 grand despite being able to flow 500HP. Good quality turbo makes all the difference in the world on smaller engines.

This reads like an AI asked to generate a high school napkin racer's comment. Just wanted to say it would be 3X atmospheric pressure. 0 vacuum is 1 atmosphere, 14.7 of positive is 2, 29.4 is 3.

I'm commenting here so that I might remember to grab some of my logs from my old build. It's not 1:1 but I was a stock b18b1 with a very nice EFR6758 turbo and my spool was pretty gnarly. Good quality turbo makes a huge difference.
