Honda B Series Engine Best Mods & Upgrades [Tuning]

[@anotherdedchannel]

One big tip for alot of b series owners, learn to drive your car as fast as it will go before spending too much money upgrading the power. Often I find people aren't able to fully utilize the 180hp of a good vtec engine yet go ahead and supe it up anyways and that's fine. However, if you want to be a good driver, learn to drive fast, and continue to do so as you upgrade over time!

[@tjabdon606]

I love my built b series . It seems to really like Nitrous express all controlled by a Haltec ecu and Mad scientist auto behind the key board. It’s sleeved cams springs retainers rods etc. It does pretty good for a NA car and I can still drive it to work

[@gabe_thegecko3395]

Could you give me your ig or number I'm acquiring a Integra and would love to have a more experience person to advise at times

[@G_B_2000]

Phenomenal explanation man. I know nothing about these motors and this was a very nice video to provide me some direction

[@RyanHall-f4j]

B18c1 I put a p73 type r intake manifold on a p72 head alot of research S80 lsd type r gearbox Has a neptune ecu with 2step Has arp head studs Pcv deleted with crank case an rocka cover breather set up Goes good revs 9k rpm all day To many rules in New Zealand to get it certified if i decide to go turbo Its a fun db8 an reliable an cheap on gas

[@SosaSoulja]

Hey mate I’ve got a db8 aswell, I thought the type R intake mani wouldn’t work on a c1 head due to cr head being bigger ports?

[@angel4k588]

Hp???

[@TAkEdA31]

thanks for the info, im a total noob and have a 96 integra with a b18b in it. After adding intake, header and exhaust im really noticing how much i need to tune soon. Probably a vtec head thrown on in the near future. This is great info for the dumb guy way behind on these engines.

[@plsdonttttt]

how did it go?

[@ce1622]

B20B long intake 97 AWD crv. Have a nice header from PLM 2.5" collector, stock but new cat, 2.5" cat back. Exhaust gets the most results on B series. I've also had 95 GS-R 1.8 VTEC had a lot of bolt ons but the VTEC engines need the 4-1 really wakes up the top end.

[@adriansanchez8785]

I have a D 17 A and it’s terrible. I’m trying to do a swap. I can’t decide what engine to go with. Thank you for all the information and lotta information in this one video.

[@torquecars]

Glad to help and thanks for your encouragement, I wish you all the best in your project, there are some very interesting projects around with Honda engine swaps in them.

[@theedge5584]

So u have a '01- '04ish... n yea they suck but the K isn't to bad to swap in....I think you bolt it right in

[@zekezeikitsune2339]

K20z3 is a good option for you. I’ve seen an 01’ with an H22 blue top before which is interesting…but wouldn’t recommend since the K is stronger and there’s more available parts to swap into an EM2/ES1 chassis.

[@scclarke2229]

B Series are fun

[@ghostofakina8747]

Great video! Thanks

Jdm b18c Skunk2 tuner 1 cams Skunk2 intake manifold and 70mm throttle body Type R p73 pistons Dual valve springs added to exhaust side Type R single accessory crank pulley Lightened flywheel (9lbs) 6 pick clutch With cams matching a larger throttle body team up well

[@torquecars]

Very nice! Thanks for sharing your tips with us. Do you know the duration on the cams? Did it affect idle much?

[@civicstar982]

@@torquecars slightly larger then the ITR cams and the only legal cam upgrade for California. Haven’t heard this baby purr yet it’s still on the engine stand. Need to paint the valve cover and adjust the valve cover then it’s drop in ready

[@torquecars]

Keep me posted, I bet you can't wait to get it sorted and on the road.

[@theedge5584]

NO DYNO, NO TUNE, IF SO WHATS UR NUMBERS

[@rockers2rockers616]

Great video mate.

[@pauldupre2269]

I'm sorry but you said these B-Series engines were in Type R models. I would like to add they were also in VTI & VTI-S models. Otherwise a fantastic informative video & enjoyable to watch. Thank you. #classicvehiclesdevon

[@LilTemha]

I got a obd1 chipped b18c7 with k and n aem intake high flow cat and 4-1 headers making 170 whp Really wanna stick to all motor, might get 68-70mm throttle body and an intake manifold

[@jayydaman6784]

Awesome vid

[@joe187976]

Iv a b18c4 engine in my mb6 vtis. Iv got the skunk 2 cams, skunk2 inlet, whale intake, tegiwa 4.2.1 header, toyosports exhaust 2.5 , decat. I changed the box the a s80 4.4 fd, iv the p73ecu. Is their anything eles you'd suggest. I want to make it really nice without turbo. Or would it be cheaper getting the b18c engine. Any kore mods and advice would be really appreciated

[@leons.2468]

Gott the Same Car. But im about tot take the engine. And Swap it in a ej9. But i Love the mb6 anyway. I just think its a bit to heavie

[@clplusp8762]

So i just recently bought a 1990 Integra GS. Its fully stock. From what I understand , there’s no real easy mod to add power as any setup requires a very extensive list of supporting mods. I bought it hoping id be able to add a few mods for 160-180 whp. I now know it’s not that easy

[@torquecars]

You can still have fun with it, focus on suspension strip out weight and you'll transform the cars fun factor and it wont cost a fortune.

[@billywild5440]

Get the fuel tank as low as you can and go fill it with brand name premium. NOT grocery store gas. Unhook the battery and reconnect so computer recalibrates. After 2nd tank you'll feel 15 more hp.

[@billywild5440]

If you want to butcher one, please get an LS instead.

[@MunchPremium]

I will turbo it till it brakes and get a k series 😅

[@torquecars]

I like your thinking, I often used to modify cars till they break then fix the broken things with higher performance parts. It's expensive but a great way to learn and I suppose spreads out the cost.

[@nathang8321]

B16a with a supercharger tuned at 245hp rebuilding it currently and looking to go around 300 horsepower if I get a smaller pulley and some cams do you think I could be making close to that. Looking to bore out the pistons and chuck in larger forged pistons a lot of upgrades I haven’t stated trans has also been rebuilt snd strengthened so should be able to hold the power I’m planning on making is a street car also!

[@torquecars]

Awesome spec, how do you find traction with that at the moment and thanks for the support my friend. It is impossible to estimate power as there are too many variables here, I would suspect you need to focus on fuel mods as well. Improving the head is a key on these higher power B series builds.

Nah b series came out mid 80’s my guy

[@torquecars]

Thanks for the heads up, I totally misread the script here! Sorry about that. I'll be reshooting this one in the not too distant future, there are a few things I've found out I need to update/share with others.

[@daddymulk]

In the brochure the Mugen turbo kit for Mk1 CRX came with replacement ECU so it was all setup ready when full kit fitted
