If this is correct a killer DOHC for $500 lol.... I call **** talking!Wouldn't even come close to a stock b16 running on 3 cyl! LOL
Now in defense to the all mighty torque less monster.... they are super good motors stock. IMO and if u ask someone with at least a decent IQ B16's are KING to boost.
If you’re looking for something all motor/reliable/fast ... know what you’re doing to a b16 or otherwise go straight type-R. <---- best motor for all motor in my opinion! If you drove a type-R swap or owned 1 running proper u'd understand!

I take it you havent heard of a B20B then eh?

Im not gonna make this into a "my cars faster then yours thread"
But its mainly, if you're 1/4 mile, don't waste your time with a b16
Bump upto a GSR turbo or something.
Or a crazy built mini-me d series turbo.
If you're running 14.0 ET or higher... its nothing really to brag about with a honda.

yeah I did actually... call Nick at teknotik. I was just shy of 160 and I have done a few things since then to give me a few more ponies,.... so 160 is probably a few HP low.
Also the reason I went with a B16 is because I like them and I can always keep the head because it flows so well and put it on a ls block.

Cheaper then buying an LS bottom end
And your torque numbers will be higher then a LS bottom end.
Ive seen B20 vtec builds run well around 200whp for cheaper price then it is to hit 180whp mark with a GSR or B16.
Get a good tune, quality parts, and someone who knows how to build a proper B20vtec and you'll be at the 200whp all day long.

The LS block was just because I have a good one lying around somewhere.

I have driven type r teg's and i was not the impress with how well they go. I use to kill type r teg with a bone stock B18B1 in a 92 4 door civic. I killed a **** load of more car when i went LS/VTEC boosted. I use to stay with a WS6 T/A that makes 356 WHP on the straights way.

Okie...
1st : It wasn't explained that this killer motor would be mix matched with another tranny.
2nd: Get a striaght b16 swap and run it against your stock b20 with a gs-R trans and see what it runs.... if both car are same, and both drivers are same hands down b16 will win. 4k+ b20 gets owned.
B16's are tqless monsters... but make power to red line being all top end vtec motors.
FYI I have a dyno paper of one of my old set-ups...
B16a1 making 160whp and 105 wtq.
Mods : 3" short ram, blox manifold, adj. cam gears,4-1 header, 2.5" exh. cat-back.
Stock head...stock cams! and on a gs-R tranny.
Simply tuned... by the best SPLITFIRE.
Im not here to say b16's are the best motors... but many ppl underestimate them... problem is... ppl have b16's that are beat to ****... putting down 136whp and arent the best drivers losing to D series vtecs.
b16's have tons of pottential.. and are great right out of the box... and hands down best motor for boost!

I take it you havent heard of a B20B then eh?
Still low compression, piece it together with a short gear tranny and you'll get walked all over
B20B with GSR trans is my weapon of choice
Rev limiter bumped up a bit to 7500rpm
Full of torque and its got the midrange power B16s lack
