JRSC's don't work real well with B18b. I think it has to do with the lower compression of the engines, but typically a B18b puts down about ~120 to the wheels stock and with a supercharger it puts down ~150 with lots of tuning. This is the same as a B18c with basic bolt-ons. A B18c with a supercharge will usually put down 190+ with minimal tuning. On the other hand a B18b with a Drag turbo usually puts down well over 200 to the wheels. If you want street legal I'm almost positive a Greddy turbo can be altered to fit a B18b engine. Due to the lower compression of the B18b it is probably the best engine to go turbo on in the Honda/Acura lineup. Plus don't you want that cool blow off valve. Waaaapssssh.
