(ran an eg b16.. heh.. not an awful lot of difference i tells ya!)

jdm b16a isnt even rare.. and u can easily find them for 2.5k .... imo thers no use boosting any standard motor cause it just dont last unless ur hittin the internals.

Good point.U can always upgrade the valves etc at a later date.

lol.. u are the one who posted "160wh" so i tot u said 160hp at the fly.. lol.. look at what u type b4 bro.. and ur kit comes with ECU?..

and this guy here onli has $3.5k to start with to do a swap for sohc vtec and turbo.. its proven that d series turbo is not a good choice for him.. b16a swap with 3.5k is more realistic.. unless his financials get better..

I think VT1-R is right because with turbo'ing stuff can go wrong which = $$$

Yeah I kooked it lol

160kw at the fly is what I'm running on close to stock exhaust..

173kw at the fly with 2.5" exhaust

Thats far more power than even a heavily moded B16?
