B series swap in 7th gen civic?
- Thread starter flat4whore
- Start date
Ok Green so I looked into the Vitara pistons setup. Even read the thread you posted, but no dyno plots were shown to prove the claim. Even if there is one, that setup have to be spooled by a decent turbo. At that horsepower in that civic I'm guessing you start breaking axels. I just don't see why the B series is such a hard swap. The 6th gen civic guys do it and they get the d16. I find it safe to assume that the d17 and 16 share the same motor mounts, so a motor mount kit for a 16 should be the same, right? I'll continue to look into the Vitara setup, I just find it hard to believe that a d16 is making 400+ horsepower because of pistons.
wtf are you talking about 3k for a whole turbo kit from dezod.com
my bro spend about 2k for all his s**t.

and no D17 and D16 dont use same mounts, hence why you cant swap a D16 block into a 7th gen.
manifolds for the d17 are hard to come by, he bought his used for 1500, put it on, made 214whp/198wtq. then dezod sent him the upgrade manifold, down pipe and intercooler for free(yes 100% free) and he went back and made 240whp@12psi
highest HP D17 ive seen so far is 374 on a stock block...actually he is the highest D17 ever until someone comes along and proves me wrong. i plan on making 400 once i build my motor. all i need is pistons and rods and a cam. and then i up the PSI.....its possible. very possible. and BTW...this is a known fact for any D series.
a Kswap in a 7th gen....the lowest price possible is around 6k for all the parts. were talking the K20A3 and all necessary parts. including Kpro...and you better be a DAMN good shopper to find all that. at that price.
now the reality...you spend all that money to increase your STOCK HP by how much? 40hp? the D17 makes 127HP to the crank from the factory. the K20A3 makes what 165? if that? so you just spent 6k on a 40hp upgrade.
if you take that same 6K and invested it into your D17.... you could make well over 300hp and have change! this includes a turbo, pistons rods cam and SLEEVES. <<<<benson sleeves at that. also Kpro. and you dont need to be a bargain shopper to get this. all this can be purchased new.
the Bseries 7th gen like the one mentioned above. is a landspeed record car. it had a B16 in it destroked to a 1.5 liter. it was completely custom.

nicee.. around here in texas you can get a k20a3 complete motor+trans/tranny for about 3g and to have them put in your car is probably about 1500-2000 so your pretty much saving about a grand for the swap to be done. then again 5g for a swap for about 40hp is.. wack. id rather use that money for turbo and upgrades myself ;P
It's called torque. the Evo has more of it by a lot than the RSX does. Trust me I know, I own a Grand National.
k24 from accord = 900
rsx type s tranny = 1000ish
k20a2 head = 1200ish
swap parts = 2-3000
kpro = 1000
individual throttle bodies = 1000
beating a moded evo and snake s**t turbo d17, ALL ENGINE = priceless
say na today
