Ok. So im starting my build from scratch and i just picked up my bare block with a fresh hone.(B18b1). What would you guys say is a good set of pistons and rods for me to get? I'm looking to get around 500hp When i boost so i wanna make sure that my pistons and rods can handle this.-thanks

Yah google and or honda-tech are going to be your best friends here. And seriously if you're looking to make 500HP and you don't even know what parts to get, you might be getting in a little bit over your head. 500HP is a pretty high goal, not exactly easily obtainable.

ya honestly i did, close to a month of research before i bought my motor for my swap, if that gives you any gauge. i would take my time and learn everything about what you want to achieve.

That fresh HONE isnt gonna help you with your build. Your gonna need to sleeve the block to get that power. Safely.

HondaTuning got 500 out of a stock block and crank. You can achieve 500 safely but you better research the crap out of it. Having 500 is one thing, but putting it to the ground is another. Factor in suspension, ECU, Tuning, and Cost.

For 500 HP. The first thing you have to do is get a Dart block. Even a resleeved OEM block won't last pushing that amount of boost.
Spend some time here reading. They put a lot of time into B series research and should have all the stuff you're looking for.
