Hey guys!

Hey there guys! I just finished buying a civic myself, been into Hondas for about a year and a half now, I sold my 1988 Honda CRX with a B16A2 in it which I was sharing ownership with my best friend, I sold the car in full to him, and now am a proud owner of a 1990 Honda Civic Si Hatchback, I suppose my question to all you Honda pro's out there would be: What motor can I fit into this Si with enough room to turbo it yet? I'd like to do a B18C Turbo swap for the D series, but I'm not sure if it would all work out, This civic of mine is a pure project car, although it still runs well I don't drive it too terribly often, just to do the odd errand, as I am a tow-truck driver, I have the ability to get anywhere in my truck, so the car sits in waiting for the mods to begin... Any input is good input guys

Re: Hey guys!

Don't know how big of a swap you can put in it, but do know where you can relocate the battery to make room. I had a 91 SI hatch with a jdm swap and relocated the battery to the passenger side rear arm rest. Made a bracket, welded it in, and made a vent with a tube for drainage. It freed up alot of space and also helped with weight transfer when racing autocross. Just an option for you if you wanted to go that way.

Re: Hey guys!

On a completely seperate note I think the 11 year old fuel pump is finally deciding it's nearly dead... Went to start my car today after being in the bank, it turns over fine, catches, but after one throttle burp up to 2500 rpm it would simply die, I left it for about 5 minutes, and then got it to catch again and revved the **** out of it (right to about 4000rpm) for a minute and it idled and ran fine again, if it's not the fuel pump anyone have any other ideas???
