ok here is me being honest with you... you will NOT make 400HP... you want to know why??? you dont have a clue what you are doing... i say read a ton and try to get more into the scene, learn as much as you can... help at shops anything you have to do... study a ton... THEN MAYBE you can have a shot at knowing what you are doing to be able to build a honda like that... but i am telling you now that you are between 15-18 and you will not build this car...

In all seriousness, dont get all mad at the criticism. Just keep learning as much as you can and don't have goals as to where you wanna go. Build a cheap turbo kit right now, learn what you have to do and then later on you'll be able to build up what you really wanted. Everything happens with time man, good luck.

aight... i'll try ta help the man out... ok... pick urself up an older b18c1 block also at the same time pick up an older B16 Head... port and polish the head... Build up your internals... lower the compression... learn the basics of a turbo system... make... and yes... I SAID MAKE... a custom turbo setup... and then go from there if you build it right u can make that motor hold 400HP... but will need an awful lot of tuning... just take ur time... and learn more stuff about honda motors... and u'll figure it out

now i think even i can build a 400HP honda... seriously... he doesnt know shit about cars... that is obvious... so as i said read and learn as much as you can THEN THINK about building this beast... i mean you could always just pay someone to build it for you but then you are just another stupid ass with too much money and you will still be a tard when it comes to cars...
