I There Anyone Out There With A B18c1 Swap?????

i want to know how you gotthe secondary butterflies to work…

i found out a way to control the secondary butterflies like VTEC,

i can open it at any RPM level…

holla back

you should check the teg tips and look at dans swap guide it tells you all you need for engine swaps.
but i hear a lot of people swap out that im and use the skunk2 im so you wont have to worry about the secondary butteryflies any more :slight_smile:
someone correct me if im wrong

how are you running it? i’m interested. i still havent gotten my vtec to run yet. are you running non-OBD? are you doing the pr3 ECU setup?

come on guys… read the engine swap guide! It will give you the info you need to make your b18c1 (or any other b series engine) swap a clean and simple swap.

if you have a 90-91 then don’t even bother with the stock intake manifold. just run a pr3 or pw0 ecu and use a skunk2 intake manifold. To run the stock ecu you would have to convert the car to obd1, which would be a pain in the ass, and would be costly and time consuming. Plus, the b18c1 intake manifold sucks anyway, so if you are smart you would have a better intake manifold planned for a future mod anyway.

if you have a 92-93 you can easily run the stock intake manifold by using a 94-95 gsr ecu. But again you’ll probably want to upgrade the intake manifold in the future anyway. In which case you’d need the skunk2 intake manifold and you’d need to get your ecu chipped to get rid of the secondary butterfly controls.

one more thing to think about is throttle body placement. as you know the b18c1 intake manifold is sort of “upside down” when compared with the other b series intake manifolds. this means that the tb (and in turn where you connect your intake piping) is in a different place. So, this may make your intake fit strange, or not fit at all. I personally haven’t experienced where the tb will be when the b18c1 is put into a G2, so i don’t know for sure if it causes problems with routing your intake or clearance of other things. But its something to look into.

and again… Read the vtec swap guide!! It will give you all the above info and more!

well the dual stage intake manifold produce good power

the fact that the intake itself adjust the amount of air the engine takes in, is a great idea…and i honestly dont know why people don’t use it for their advantage.

well i did…(dont have the money for a skunk2)

i modified it to work with the VTEC, when the VTEC open, so does the butterflies. hence the VTEC has the full air flow potential, and the bottom end keeps the power.

i am workin on a web page on how to do the setup…it took me about 15mins…and it is at no co$t…

later

Just so there’s no confusion, it’s not necessary to chip the ECU. I’m in the middle of this swap and using the Skunk2 w/ the OBD-I P72 ECU anyway, no chip necessary.

ummm… i’m running with the GSR tb rite now in my g2. and just needed to do some ahem:“ghetto rig” the piping off of LS pipe and GSR pipe. works just fine for the time being.

i need to talk to you. it sounds promising. and i dont have that much money, so it sounds good to me. email me HLDao77@aol.com please.
thanks

well i am almost done…

i am practically done.

BUT…

i not sure which one open the butterflies…when the vacume valve is up(with vacume)…or down(no vacume).

if anyone knows…hit me with an answer.
