I said I'm BASING it off speed factory's build I'm not doing the exact same things...
Who's build are you basing this off of? Lol. Listen, why "base" your build off of a car that makes twice as much power as you are looking for? Speedfactory has the fastest Outlaw car right now by runing 8.08@190mph, trust me you don't have that type of bankroll, I would venture to say no one on this forum has that type of money just laying around they can throw into their car. It takes more than just slapping parts in a motor in order for it to run right, make power and ultimately go fast.I'm basing my build off of the 1300hp civic build golden eagle did in the newest edition of HONDA TUNING magazine

Let's get one thing straight here alright guy? This isn't my first rodeo... Yes it is slightly different but I know what needs to be done I have a 1000 hp 71 short box Chevy. I built myself I'm not an off the block 16 year old with a pipe dream. I'm 20 btw

I think the OP was trying to prove he wasn’t a noob at high HP cars. I get that. But a big block Chevy with a carb is night and day different from a PGM-FI, high compression, high revving, high head flow 4 cylinder.
The basic formula is the same for all high HP Hondas. You need a built bottom end - sleeved block, forged pistons and rods. Compression ratio is debatable and is limited by the octane of fuel. Then add a large turbo capable of flowing at least 65lbs/min. That much air needs a lot of fuel so large injectors and a lot of fuel pump. Lastly the stock ignition in Hondas is inconsistent. Some can make it work at high cylinder pressures, some cant. I suggest you upgrade the coil or add 3 more.
And there's your recipe.

Considing this thread was just a question about how hard swapping a b18a1 to a gs-r motor... Not about my engine building abilities...

I'm going golden eagle sleeving 84mm bore 10.5:1 arias forged pistons, eagle H-beam rods, I'm going with a b16a head haven't decided what exact brands I'm going with in the top end yet all the other stuff needs to be brainstormed still.... Step at a time boys.... I'll get the block and head prepared by the machine shops deal with everything when it comes

Which is why we were questioning your skills to properly build, own, and maintain a 600hp Honda. That's all bro, take it with a grain of salt man.Considing this thread was just a question about how hard swapping a b18a1 to a gs-r motor... Not about my engine building abilities...

The only thing I am concerned about is what transmission to run...
