111 ft lbs. compared to B18B at 127 and B18C1 at 128. Below VTEC it drives like a D16 series VTEC.
Lame question by the way

B16A from 1991 and from 1992 are completely different in power

it sucks in all actuality when you look at the SOHC D16Y8 with 4 ft of tq less than the B16

http://tech.hybridgarage.com/tech/specs.htm

this one is slightly different but remember that the B16A3 is 16.0 kgm for the torque

a stock b16 feels NOTHING like a d16 in low rpms.the low end pull is significantly better on the b16.

Boost will plant you in the seat hard and even harder in the upper rpms after vtec.350-400+whp will make you **** your pants, btw I suggest posting in the forced induction section.

If you want something with some Torque go LS or B20... No vtec but still power.
