Civic pride TSI R18 turbo! - Page 7

I have sent a reply to your pm. Use the original gasket that was there to fix the blanking plate is what i meant. reset the ECU and try again. I dont know hoe rich you are running but in case you are running something richer than 11.5 on full boost i suggest that you could lean it out a bit.

I'm willing to bet that the R18 can handle more than you think. Also, B series are very stout motors. I think it was a month or two ago, Honda Tuning had a practically stock B16 making 500+whp. Not saying it would last a long time like that, but you also have to think about when the motor is producing that amount of power. Not all the time. It's been said a million times but can't really be emphasized enough...it's all in the tuning.

im sure itd be a close race but the si would most likely win. the transmission in the si is geared more for fast acceleration

I will give that a try, and while am in full boost my air/fuel gauge read around 10.7 or 10.8 it is around there..

I will be racing an Si, like i am right now before i up the boost on it, and i will try to get a video of the race at the track

, am 90% sure i will win, for the torque numbers and also the lighter weight.. the gearing is not that bad on the R18.. long gears are good for turbo cars..

Damn that sounds sick. Quality of the video is ok but from what i saw you went from twenty something to thirty something and forty, that's quick!!! Glad to see an R18 running good.

ran a superchared FA5 (sri,bcrd,skunk2) the other night..lets just say it came out in my favor

ill do it again and get a vid that way all the turbo Dx haters are proven wrong with video proof

MoHawk · 05-16-2008, 12:36 AM

Sweet video. Just needs a little more sound.

Civic Pride · 05-16-2008, 12:49 AM

For some reason the video does not look that good, on the original video the quality is better.. it goes like this from 14,28,35,40,45,50,55,61,67,73 than i slow down..
