The story, bought 3 years ago of someguy who bought it new, the car had 113,000 miles with the typical honda cancer.
#1 motor - stocker
#2 motor - b20 ls/VTEC
12.5:1 with crower rods
crower 403’s
homeade ITB’s
this motor dident last very long, due to lack of fuel i was a complete newb for the most part
#3 motor stock b18c1 with homeade itb’s
i bought the motor off of hycomp, with got it off of hybrid a few years back.
this motor was fun i never tuned it what so ever.
my et was 14.0 @101mph with this setup on junk for tires and no track experance.
#4 motor d15 vx motor vs 8.5 psi
i did this over winter to get ahold of boost and see what it could do i built a turbo kit for under $30 with some freebee value
it was every bit of a 13.0 but again dident last very long (head gasket)
integra dash swap
#5 motor b18b for a while it was all motor just having fun with. super fun car to mess around with. then i added the turbo. this is truely the biggest bang for your buck setup, lasted 3 months of abuse in the winter then i broke a rod
#6 motor b18b under 10psi went 11.87@118 and had alot of fun at the flashlight drags till i spun a bearing in time
#7 motor b18a under 10 psi hybrid dyno day and a few 11 sec runs on this motor
#8 motor was a stock sleeved ls/vtec motor with forged pistons and rods under 15psi
i had a few head gasket problems for one reason or another the block i was useing had well over 170,000 miles on it.
my et with this set up was 11.53@126.xx on street tires with a few back to back 11.5’s untill my motor mounts started to give. in time i ended up cracking a sleeve.
thew 8 motors i have tested, won a good bit of money, and learned a ton of stuff and had a car i drove around EVERYDAY and everywhere.
the motor i am building now is this
block b18c1
GE sleeved 84mm
rods crower
pistons TBA

South flordia perfromance manifold (yes it cracks and i weld it all the time)
turbonetics t3/60-1 ( i dont know other specs)
jonhnyracecar ic (prob gonna change)
880cc injectors

GM 3 bar
Tuning with crome pro
thats about it, simple and effective
