Re: why do people not like b16 da integras

I never understood why people called DA's "heavy." They weigh the same/less than the following model integras and less than an EM1. I'm sure some people put b16's in their DAs because their looking for a spirited/fun driver, not an all out drag machine.

just stay with what you got..
you dont have to have a B18C1 to be all that great honestly any motor you drop in your car will be great if you know what your doing and how much hp your going to make.. doesnt matter. b16's can beat GSR adn B20 an other MOTORS.. if you have the right equiptment. i

Re: why do people not like b16 da integras

tq in a boosted car isnt great, My buddy is putting down 450whp with his b16 and it holds tight on the road. I have another friend with a b18c1 and he brakes all the time and spins like crazy and is slower with no traction.

I personally picked the b16, boost and traction on the street is a perfect combo... For the drag strip with slicks and an LSD B18c1 all the way...

Re: why do people not like b16 da integras

Ok....
I know this is about the b16 DA, but
What do you guys think about a b16 in a DB1 Teggy?! (Thats already installed)
Or what about building the b16 instead of swaping back in a B18 or B20??
Im guessing most people might say is, "take b16 out buy b18 or b20 and turn into lsvtec or b20vtec" or something around that nature...
Just looking for opinions on "If you had a db1 w/ b16 what would you do with it"
