ok what i got from the site is that you shouldnt go back in obd's. both motors i was looking at where obd0 and my car is a obd1. so it will be harder to wire. can a single cam v-tec motor push 300+ hp. when the come stock with 125?

with lots of work, you could probably build the del sol motor and turbo it and have that to the crank, but thats a lot of money. Just put a b16 in it, and see how you like it n/a. then think about turbos. But if you want 300+ the the wheels, you'll probably have to build the bottom end.

Re: b16 or ls
does it really make it that much harder if they are different obd's? is there anyone out there that knows how to wire motors? if i have the stock ecu that the motor came from would that take care of my obd problem but to make this a better question can someone explain what a obd is and whats the differences in them?
