#85018 Honestly i like my b16, i can baby it and drive it normaly around town or if i want the need for speed i juss punch it a little more and it gets up and goes. Yea its true it doesnt got torque like a 1.8 and i knew that when i was choosing what motor to get.
On the highway i can easily keep up with gsr integras and beat ls's and my motor is stock besides a clutch and a exhaust. Im sure if i got some type r cams and a decent header it would make good power. Gotta remember its only a 1.6.
But if your planning to go boost i say just get an LS motor and slap the turbo on there and you would be good. And its cheaper!! lol :thumb:

I bet you kept the stock ls water pump when you did your ls/vtec set up.

Done right ls/vtec lasts you forever.
Should go back to ls/vtec cus nothing tops it.

#85023 honestly I had jsut bought the pump the day before it died, it was the hottest day last summer I got stranded in the high way with no way of really cooling it well, besides pouring all the water I had in the back to cool it, I had recently just installed an aluminum radiador :( but like I said I can't be more happy with the setup I've got now Plain ol LS with Si tranny, will be working on the motor later.
