1995 Acura Integra Turbo Build!!

[Hybrid Motorsports]

Owner: Richie

Richie wanted to increase his power output in his Teggy. He decided turbocharging was the best way to achieve his goal, So He did things the right way and began sourcing all of his parts prior to the teardown, To avoid any hiccups seeing that it's his daily.

Parts list: (The Goodies)
Engine: B18b1 (ls)

Hondata s100 ecu
ARP headstuds
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
440cc Injectors
Clevite rod/ms/tw
xspower t3 turbo
xspower turbo manifold
xspower 38mm wastegate
HKS style blow off valve
Eagle h-beam connecting rods
JE forged 9.0:1 std bore pistons
Hybrid Motorsports custom down/midpipe
Hybrid Mototrsports custom 3" intercooler piping

XTD 6 puck sprung clutch kit

The engine will also be freshened up with all new gaskets/seals/ water pump & oem timing belt.





















So when 99% of the part arrived at the shop we began the transformation:











Fast forwarding a bit everything was torn down inspected cleaned, machined and prepared for assembly:









BG Installed:







With the bottom squared, we focused on the head installing new valve seals/oem cams and performing a valve adjustment.

Why no vtec conversion? Power goals?? Around 300 whp for daily i would suppose on 10-12 psi

the motor build itself is pretty nice. xtd clutches are strong for the price. xspower turbo's suck. the seals go bad quick. the manifold also cracks really bad around the t3 flange and wastegate flange. are those dsm 450cc injectors? other than that i give a thumbs up to everything else.

Yeah shooting for around that power range , figured it wasn't neccessary to go VTEC.

Thanks and agreed on some of the external components but this is what was in the customer's budget at the moment, the plan was to build a solid foundation and can always upgrade the externals later, 440cc skyline Injectors

Thanks again for the

well if he's still into cheap but reliable, I've rewelded one of those xspower manifolds and it held up for years. expecially if you have tig, i mig welded every single weld. its funny when a buddy comes to you with his wastegate hanging in the engine bay. also, I'm pretty sure you can rebuild those xspower turbo's with garrett internals, if not...find just a garrett cartridge and bolt the ebay housings to it. People have been doing that for years.
