b16's rev higher because they have lack of torque

[EG52NV]

b16's rev higher because they have lack of torque

Nah Wikipedia is obviously wrong, I had to request a correction the other day when I read they wrote b16a2 would redline at 9000rpm lol

b16's rev higher because they have lack of torque

Yeah as above Moiz, I think Wikipedia is a little off haha. I know B16's rev a little higher, but not 1000rpm =P

Also to the OP, can you tell us what date is stamped on the head? Just below the valve cover, on the front of the head on the left hand side there should be a date stamped in a little circle like '9/3' for 1993 etc.

Redline 8200 surely. Cut at about 8400.
