that mikey G guy is the biggest shit talker ive ever met..
in the space of 15minutes he sold two sets of wheels. claims a guy under the username DNT-CRY bought them!
B20b $500 from Japan (Orthia Engine) + B16a* transmission. Faster than any B18c* swapped EG and a whole lot cheaper. Provided you can drive it well enough and get traction. You will eat one side of your tires pretty fast though. Probably the side you're not sitting on. That money you saved for not buying into the VTEC hype would be great for a Quaife or whatever brand of LSD floats your rubber ducky.
When you rebuild just slap the VTEC head on and count your cookies that you bought for not dumping so much money into a Honda all at one time. The VTEC head will give you better flow once you start wanting to make real power with it. Bump the comp to like 11:1 and then piece together a turbo kit. Have patience.

A 145hp engine with 178nm tied to a open diff gearbox will not be faster in any way or situation than a b18c with typically 200hp and 182nm with a lsd transmission and shorter FD. Unless you can show some evidence ?
Cheaper yes - but just not as fast.

An h2b swap is a cheapish way to be competitive. Good torque, similar horsepower, and nobody wants the engine.

Uhh, check Honda-tech. This is known quantity already that has been known for at least a decade. Gearing plus torque is how you get the most out of any setup. HP is just a functional calculation derived from torque. On the same setup, the B20 will always be faster than the smaller displacement B-series.

Reason: No replacement for displacement.

Can you post some links of a eg civic with both a standard type r setup vs a standard b20b (with normal open diff b16a gearbox) for comparison sakes ?
All I can find is dead standard or lightly modified older LS integras with b20s running 15's all day long. Are you sure you haven't confused this setup with a b20 vtec head setup ?
