New Civic

[H22JET]

Just purchased a 1991 Civic Si DOHC 1.6 Non Vtec the other day with discs in the rear instead of drums :D its a D1618 DOHC so can I put a b16 VTEC head on it or any sort of other modification? like a D18 head?
i also heard these engines handle turbo pretty goodso can someone tell me about that?

if the engine is healthy , i would turbo it. You can not use vtec head on this engine. u can not use any b series head on any d series block.

yeah its very well maintaned and healthy for just over 200.000ks but the question is are they good at handling turbo or do i need internal work done?

200,000ks and turbo hmm that would be harsh , i recommend a rebuild first.

It's a D-series, I'd just turbo it. Could still be perfectly health.

Handles turbo well. Upgrading internals all depends on your power goal mate.

id just turbo it another engine is like 500 so u can run that one and build another really

yeah but i also have a JDM H22 lying around in my written off prelude so Im thinking of dropping it in the civic but way way way to much modifications and money to do that. Mounts, wiring, linkage, weight balaance, suspension setup new clutch etc etc

[dougie_504]

Would be very torquey though! Sounds awesome!
