This book covers some performance theory basics, then launches into dyno-tested performance parts combinations for each B-series engine. Topics covered include: performance vs. economy; air intakes, manifolds and throttle bodies; tuning; turbocharging; supercharging; and nitrous oxide. Review: This was EXACTLY what I needed for before I started rebuilding my 6th Gen Civic (1996 HX). - This was EXACTLY what I was needing for my rebuild. I was going to upgrade anyway, and now I know about several good, simple options that will improve things, and it may have inspired me to see about boosting my build-intent to a 400-ish hp turbocharged design! We'll see. It compares cams, no-fancy-cams, SUPER-fancy-cams, and even mentions what happens when you screw up the timing on the valves enough. Hint: You replace the pistons AND valves. Tune With Caution. Always, but especially with aggressive cams. It mentions piston sizes and what differences they make. It mentions intakes and how the default B-series P30 intake is surprisingly-capable of running up to the highest end of upgrades. Turbos, superchargers, different TYPES of superchargers (I'd no idea about anything but 'a supercharger' before this!), cams, pistons, effects of lighter/stronger lifters and tons more besides....this book is something a newbie B-series upgrader should read, at least IMO! It helped me a lot and was both a sensible and interesting read. Reading this wasn't a hard 'technical slog' at all...though the book has graphs and dyno data and stat-charts, the 'written parts' were /written/ as if to allow people with some automotive-repair skills to be able to understand it, and I did. I'm not an ASE certified person, I simply 'do my own repairs' on my Honda...and this book made sense, as well as teaching me a lot of stuff. Sadly, here I am gushing about it and I don't see any more available for sale...but if any poor buggers are trying to do a B-swap on their Honda after me, well...get this book from somewhere! Review: GOOD BOOK - Don't expect precise instructions in what parts to buy or where or how to tune your engine to drive you to a 6 sec. 1/4 mile, all that depends too much in your particular setup, this book provides guidelines in the B-series engine aftermarket parts and how they behave in their different configurations, some tips on how to tune them and some ideas on some crazy engine builds, comprehensive, interesting and well written. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #4,404,282 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #829 in Automotive Engine Mechanics #902 in Car Customization #2,728 in Automotive Engineering (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 142 Reviews | ## Images ![Xtreme Honda B-Series Engines HP1552: Dyno-Tested Performance Parts Combos, Supercharging, Turbocharging and NitrousOx ide--Includes B16A1/2/3 (Civic, Del Sol), B17A (GSR), B18C (GSR), B18C5 (TypeR, - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71WCeDEK7fL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This was EXACTLY what I needed for before I started rebuilding my 6th Gen Civic (1996 HX). *by D***R on June 3, 2020* This was EXACTLY what I was needing for my rebuild.
