Well, I have a B16a. I'm not sure of the difference in specs from the B16a, B16a1 and B16a2 are, but it pulls decently.

P.s. What happens if I adjust them in inches?




Srsly, I'm kidding.
the only reason I say that is because I accidentally read the gauge wrong and did put them to inches and not mm. Its sounded like somebody had dropped a box of nuts and bolts in the engine it was ticking so loud. However...it was lopey as a mother fucker and sounded quite hot.

Shit, I may need some help with this. I'm not too familiar with B series adjusting and LMAs and such.

I didn't think about that. You think he'd help?

I know I gotta put it on cylinder 1, adjust intake and exhaust, then cylinder 3, adjust, so on and so forth. It's been a while since I've done it.
