M54B30 with S54 ITB-s?

Civic!! Nice. My 1st car was a 1986 Civic hatchback in Champagne Beige.

Thanks Jaker!

This is my friend's car, we are working together on our cars. It is funny btw, how many common part the twoo cars has. (same blue factory colour with different names of course, identical size turning light covers, 4*100 wheels and lots of matching sized parts)

I love Civics as well, but i stayed with the Bavarian :)

looks good! Do you expect a power increase from the ITB's or simply better throttle response?

Well, this is the question i can't answer at the moment. If i want to be honest, i would be very glad if it would give me more power. But - and this is a big but - i know, that it is really hard to joint all the pieces together to make more power at first try. Theoretically it should give us more power. It might be a problem that the ITB sizes are too big for my engine. There are setups with the s50b30/32 ITB's - which they say are better for the M54B30. We also ported the head a bit, but couldn't do too much because we kept the factory valves. What is important for me is throttle response and sound.

A sound which is kinda like this:

Finally the adapter has arrived, which goes between the head and the ITB's. It was a really long time coming as i had to look all across Europe. For some reason here in Hungary i couldn't find anybody...

Also i got the updated cog for the oil pump, since it is well known that the M54B30's doesn't like the higher revs with the factory unit, which is likely to break when used above 6000 rpm.

Hopefully the process is going to be a bit quicker from this point.

It's been a while since i last replied, but we didn't stop with the project.
The bottom part of the engine also was renewed wit new rings, new bearings, and the engine block was also reworked.

Now i'm waiting for the adapter wich is going to be placed between the head and the ITB's.

Cylinder head renewal and porting is done :)

New weekend, new progress: wires, pedals, devander and heater in da house :)

There is a few more progress made to the car, we have the interior painted, and the parts for the suspension arrived as well.
