dont know what engine to go for..

[cihanvtec]

wow thanks for all the info DC2-POWER yeah i think it was the jap spec b16 i read about. thats a huge drop in revs in second gear for the c2.. does it drop out of vtec??

@phatty
cheers mate i just need to be reassured that im not going to be dissapointed with a b18c2 vtec crossover!! lol ive been in a b16a (loved the crossover) and been in a b18c7 ( loved that crossover aswell)
the b18c7 crossover felt a little less agressive than the b16 (most likely because of the smoother torque curve on the b18), but the vtec pull was just amazing. lovely raw power

oh and hopefully ill be putting it into an eg hatch.. kinda over my sedan. i want to swap it for a hatch, so if u guys know anyone interested in a sedan, hit me up..

Not really droped out of vtec, just depends on what rpm you shift at, its all accuracy. But 1st crossover is 4500RPM, and 2nd gear is the tallest and it drops to 4900-5000RPM when shifting from 1st @ 8000K rev.

My mate had a EH Sedan (meatball). He had the B18C2 with B16A gearbox. His car was a complete weapon, I/H/E and a few other stuff, and DC5R's with Toda goodies couldn't keep up. It was a weird car but was very powerful. PM him, his username meatball. 89lude built his car.

Good luck though, brainstorm a good combination of parts (i.e. if you want more topend or mid range power etc), and you'll be ahead of your plans.

Good luck.
