Ive seen both Nice B-series swaps as well as Nice D-series turbo installs, I'd suggest having a look at some of both

Worst thing about the D's is the lousy 1-2 gear ratio.

Take one for a drive and see if it agrees with you.

x2, b16 is much better in that regard

Then try 1-2 gear after boost lol

Sucks hard....... I just take off in second in normal driving

need Y8 box but them only a bit better lol

1st gear in my old turbo dseries was crap... would be over way too quick

b16 with avcr set at 10psi and disco potato was WAY BETTER!

[Limbo]

yeah i love the b16 turbo :), you will also.
The d series longer ratios are actually good for a boosted car

[[ricer]]

if you got the money just do a b swap

heaps of new and second hand aftermarket parts available locally

D-turbo for life

Smart ass Benson lol

Be honestly I would have gone DOHC VTec then turbo if I could have afforded it

[filip5]

depending on your budget and how much you want to spend a b series would have more potential but dont underestimate the d series
