b18c is the way to go imho
do you know the differences between the c7 and c2? It's not that much if you later going to do headwork - and the block is close to the same.. if you look at my b18c2 build.. the block has had all work done to be much better than any c7 block and sustain much more hard driving than any c7 block - also the head with aftermarket cams, springs, etc and after a port and polish - is actually better than the c7 head after cams, springs etc.. also the compression is higher.
b18c = more torque and more easy workability.
yup bro.. i noe wats C7 n C2... Its just a complicated discussion every1 joins in.. So it may seem I am not getting the point.. but my question is answered and I will proceed to do what i tink is the best.. Thank every1 for their
comments!...
enjoy :D
lol, everyone talk like budget is unlimited..
the budget , would be almost exactly the same between the B16 and B18 series. They take the same header/intake/exhaust combos , also camshaft options/pistons/headwork is all in the same league.Quote:

PS go the B18c7 if you can find one
I'd stick with the B16, simple because you already have all the parts to drop in, and imo $4500 for a 10hp increase is not worthy at this stage, especially because right after you're going to be broke as.
Nothing wrong with having fun revving the shit out of the 1.6l anyway. Power isn't always everything.

A modded b18c (vtir) will perform as well as a modded b18c7. And alot cheaper to buy straight off.
that's why I said "AT THE END OF THE DAY, IF YOU DECIDE TO STROKE IT."Quote:

Dont think i would trust anyone in oz to do it anyway.
usually I just looked at their demo cars first, how many have they done, and then their customers' satisfaction. and then I'll do it.
