is it worth buying a 91 integra with a b16 over a 91 integra with a ls.. dont worry about the milage. im just talking about speed wise. is the b16 alot faster?

 

DA is kinda heavy for the b16's torque.. ive always heard mixed reviews on them.. i know somebody who had one with a b16 and he pulled it out and put his b18 back.. said the torque loss wasnt worth it with a stock motor..

i would get the b16 on my DA just for the VTEC. IMO it is not worth it to put performance parts on a NON-Vtec Engine. The outcome will still be slow. Also B16 is a great engine for its price. Especially if u get the b16 with lsd.

 

thats how i fell about the B16.... It a great motor for the price... Yes people say that its TORQUELESS but ive seen them beat ls integra with the same mods..(I/H/E) To me , it just depends of the driver...

thank u.

 

I absolutely love my B16A. With an S1 transmission my car was Worlds faster than my LS motor ever was. I have raced modded LS's, and I burn them pretty badly. I would recommend getting an OBD-1 B16A (get the JDM version!!!) and converting your car to OBD-1. I would say mod for mod, me vs an LS, I would own. I'm a pretty good driver though. If you get a B16 and use your stock LS tranny, you will regret it. I am currently stuck running an LS YS1 (92-93) tranny. I got it for cheap, but my girl feels slower.

 

i have a b16 in my DA. driving is so much more fun. i mean sure the b18a was fun with all the torque, but ull love VTEC, it all depends on what ure lookin for, and the driver. i say go VTEC, i think ull enjoy it.
