Ha it's okay I think I'll keep it. It's already turbo but not a very big one. I called the previous owner and he didn't know about this either. He bought it from another guy who didn't say anything about it. I bought it for 4000 dollars, not that bad right? It was "ricer" as you guys said from my previous pictures but now i've replaced all the parts with stock ones it just needs painted. It was supposed to be done but my brother ripped me off from all the money i paid him

Are there any engravings to prove that its a machined block? I see the ARP rod bolts and the flat top pistons, thats the first thing that jumped out at me. Has anything been done to the head?

Unless you are currently turbocharged, that motor is probably making less power than a stock B18C1. Edit:nvm.

Did you ever get your brother to paint the car? Im pretty sure it was you who was having family troubles with him not doing the work he said he would.

My brother never painted the car. I ended up going to pick it up. I found a recipet in the car for almost 4000 dollars and it only said motor work from a shop in Utah. It says RS on both sides engraved into the block. It's a weird looking R and then a S. I should've taken a better picture but my phone isn't that great. As far as the head goes, I think they ran out of money to finish the car. It has a turbonetics turbo but it needs some work. Oil is leaking out from a million difference places in the turbo lines.
