Whoa!That question was almost impossible to read. Perhaps you should learn to separate your ideas a little more.1. A B18C5 motor will definitely be a great motor for your EG hatch given its light weight nature. However, sourcing a reputable motor will be no easy task for you and for your wallet. B18C5 motors are rare and very expensive. But, very stout and powerful platforms to say the least.2. If you plan on doing a B18C5 swap, I would highly advise against a turbo kit just given the high compression of this motor. In order to run a turbo kit properly on this setup, you will require some motor work in order to lower the compression a bit so that you dont fry your piston rings and/or throw a rod. Dont get me wrong, I have seen some 450+ HP B18C5 setups out there. But they cost lots of cash to setup correctly.3. An exhaust system is always a great way to free up a few extra ponies. Just look for a system that is of the quieter side and looks close to OEM so you arent making yourself out to be a target. I would recommend a greddy or Apexi World Sport system.4. Intakes are worthless in my opinion. They really dont give you any kind of power and just draw unneccessary attention to your engine bay. You would be better off just running the OEM intake box with a K&N OEM replacement filter.5. Lowering your Honda will enhance its exterior appearance and handling. Just remember to avoid the cliche, LOWER IS BETTER look. All you will do is just blow out your shocks and fast!6. Cam gears are a great addition to any car when done correctly. However, this will require you to also purchase a fuel pressure regulator, and a fuel pressure gauge to properly dial in the cams and set the timing correctly.As far as you wanting a fast and reliable car, that is what I consider an oxymoron in the tuning world. The faster you wanna be and get, the more your car breaks. You need to do a little more research and figure out exactly what your gaols are for this project.The B18C5 motor with a few bolt ons will yield you one hell of a sleeper with extremely high revving potential and pretty respectable HP numbers while still maintaining the Honda reliability.Just be prepared to open that wallet up pretty far. Maybe time to you get yourself a second job and start saving.
