hey guys new to ozhonda,

bored with the commo im driving im looking at a cheapish honda which i can play around with, most likely a LS teg,

was wondering if changing the heads to b16 vtec heads was worth doing? or would an entire engine swap be better? ive heard b18/b16 hybrids work well, but sometimes the b18 bottom end cant cope with the high rpms. and if u did a b16 head change wat ecu would be best to run?

cheers guys

^^yeh mate unless u know what ur doin and gonna rebuild the motor urself, its not cheap
