| my best advice would be to look here: http://www.thezcr.com/forums/Personally my opinion would be to put an LS in it. Wouldn't cost much more, and would be a much better platform to build from and boost... | |

| You could just buy my car! it has b18 ls with a turbo. only problem is i threw a rod so you would have to pull it apart and put a new rod in. | |

| Honestly I would recomend going N/A on the zc! I mean if your stuck with it then that would be your best route if your wanting reliabilty! The zc just doesnt have the aftermarket support that any motor that is OBD1 would have especially for tuning.. But that is just my 2 cents maybe someone else has had better luck with turboing a zc then I ever did!! And depending on what tranny axles and stuff you have maybe just sell the zc and buy a 1.6 sohc..you can build them to be strong and you will have the ability to go OBD1 with it so going boost is alot easier tuning wise..
Like I said this is just my opinions. I am sure someone else will have a different one and maybe they will know a way to do the zc and keep it realible!!
Good luck!! and look forward to seeing you out on the track or at a meet/ cruise!! | |

| i was under the idea that zcs could not be converted to obd1 because of their cam angle sensor? | |

| They make a OBD 1 zc!!! As for being able to convert an OBD0 to an OBD1 that I do not know either as I never looked into it and probably never will...lol | |

| well personally i would have picked a different engine to boost. ZC's are great little motor but stock i have seen alot of them take out rod bearings. just b swap it and add a little boost. | |

| I support boostin you zc and love to see your set on turbo vs SC set up My best advice would be to finish up your rebuild, be sure to use a good metal head gasket (believe the OEM honda unit is metal but not super familiar with the zc so i wouldn't bet on that one) Get your self some type of EMS, don't cheap out on a piggy back or rising rate FPR! (if you go OBD1 hondata, or you may look into using a new Mega squirt would be the cheapest/best options in my opinion) The engine will take boost fine so long as you are actually able to tune it, if you want a reliable car this is VERY VERY important. injectors (you could use used DSM 440cc or EVO 550cc to keep the price down, would recommend getting used inj cleaned though) new fuel filter intank walbro wired up on a relay**** one step colder copper core spark plugs Some type of vent to atmosphere catch can ****DO NOT PRESSURIZE THE CRANK CASE**** Good luck with the project, hope to here about your progress soon | |
