    Fixed.
    Soz guy..Obviously I did miscomprehend what you said but no need to be a douche about it. Im also quite familiar with the workings of a Honda four cylinder engine so don't jump to conclusions..I have built a few Honda motors in my short time on this planet. GSRs and Type Rs come with them girdles, B16s and LS motors do not. D16s have girdle/maincaps in one.. Thanks for being a douche and trying to prove something. Hope that works out for you better next time but...

    Why does he need an aftermarket girdle? I've seen plenty of guys making OVER than hp with the stock girdle..and the motors last. Sleeves are usually the only block work you would need for that power level.

    Go to Honda-tech.com and click on the "search" tab. That will pretty much answer all of your questions.

    If this is your first build, I don't think you need to be shooting quite so high on the HP number. If this will be the first time you've have a boosted car, I suggest you start off at low boost, say 7-8psi and see how you like it. You will be amazed at how much faster it is (and how much you spin the tires on the street) at that boost level.

    Too many people get a car with a stock NA engine and then want to make 500 hp.. Build your way to up it..
