B18C- JDM 1.8L DOHC VTEC- 94+ Integra SiR-G (180ps)
B18C6/7- JDM 1.8L DOHC VTEC- 96+ Integra Type R- (200ps)
Also, what do you mean, both these would need replacing if you turbo'ed it? you refering to the intake manifold?

High compression is bad for boost. Most ITR motors cant handle boost because of their high compression - but dont let this stop you from getting the best engine for ur car.
With the ITR motor, all you have to do is lower your compression. You have 2 choices A) Install a thicker head gasket, or B) install new pistons w/a lower compression ratio.
I hate it when people say the B18c5 cant handle boost - just lower compression so you dont blow it up.
