WOW, 18k you could throw in a lambo motor
jk .
My bottom end is going to cost roughly 1800 give or take a few. I decided to go alittle higher compression pistons (10:1) so I wouldn't lose a lot of low end. The bad part is I would be able to boost as high.
If you're planning to boost a lot, I would say go wit low compression pistons like 9:4, 9:1. I would look into JE, Arias, or CP pistons. There should be a few companies to choose from for Rods, I have seen many ppl with Eagle Rods, Crower Billet Rods, or Manley.
I recommend sleeving ur block through Golden Eagle, There is a sponsor on Honda-Tech who does sleeving for around 900/Hd Sleeves, or 800/Econo Sleeves. You'll need to Hone and Bore or sleeves which would cost about 100 bucs more. Look for camp1320.com in the Sponsor Classified.
I searched for about a year to find out I wanted to go FI
