Dude the B16b motor is high compression ideal for N/a not a shity turbo
So dont boost unless your planning to drop the compression

So after all is said and done i think no I know now that I will be going to go with the ls. I am not doing my project to have a hot boy motor to win shows I am here to do some spanking. Thats all. Plain jane on the out side thick and beefy on the inside.

spnamnt is selling his b16b swap for 4200, u should ask him about it

Re: Question about ctr

why have a b16b or a b18c/5 and boost them? they were built to be N/A motors... if you are going to boost something save some money and just buy a GSR/LS and boost that, then you wont be as pissed when it blows....
