      If you guys want to build a real sick civic it can't stay d or b series period, the h22 H2B swap is still nice all motor and CHEAP!. K's are where it's at once you go K you never go back but it's many $$$$. and well worth it.

      5.26 "The car is reliable" No it's not.
      You clearly state "we are normal guys and are not trained mechanics." so how do you know if it's reliable?
      The bores are floating, soon as you boosted it, all it's reliable went out the window.
      That doesn't say much about your experts if they didn't tell you this first.
      You wouldn't Turbo a Subaru N/A block and tell people its reliable would you? For god sake one of you owns a Focus RS that keeps blowing head gaskets for the same reason.
      Moog's mini is a joke, he throw away the only thing Mini's do well HANDLE for what, Hp you can't put to the ground( Hey Moog my Mini use to be an 850 but my head leaves bruises on my ankles) If he actually caned a real UK "hot BMC Mini" round a track that JAP Mini would be for sale so fast.
      And the truth will set you free.

    Well the B16 Mini is lighter and smaller than the Civics.

Even a Holden Astra VXR from 2015 are sitting at $13k. If you want a cheap, reliable, fast car that you can track, why would you spend upwards of $10k on parts, hoists, man hours and tuning on a crappy old Civic especially when wouldn’t be able to register the highly modified Civic?

    Ultimately the lack of a Limited Slip Differential is the limiting factor performance and cost wise with this car. As soon as you spend 1200 on the diff you get a 600 clutch/flywheel and crave more power so the list goes on from there. Budget Turbo doesn't really exist because as you said ability equipment and labour can significantly effect the final cost of the build. From experience ALL THE MONEY is enough. it always finds a home, in the end if you save some here and there you spend whet you got left anyway. Like oooh maybe ill get an A/F wideband with guage, or the better ECU.

      Limited Slip Differential. Nail on head Yizzer. As it happens I drive a 98 Teg type R(Civic with pretensions 😁) and I've had a few FWD cars in my time and driven a fair few more, including a non Type R 1.8 SiR Teg and the _major_ difference I noticed straight away with the R, wasn't the lower weight, fettled engine and all that JDM stuff, it was the LSD. Almost from the very first corner. Totally transforms a FWD car and tbh I wouldn't drive an FWD in "anger" without one. Imho if Moog's Mini with the EK9 R B16 has the LSD it would have come with stock, it should walk away from the Civics on anything like a twisty track/road.

      @@MrGrentchI drove a friend's DC5R back in the days. Compared to my Lsvtec DC9 it felt tame but faster. So I totally get what you mean. I have a CL9 with a tune and headers+ no LSD means I don't drive it in anger. LoL

    in Europe, if you want something budget to buy and cheap to modify, buy a FORD or OPEL/Vauxhall.
