JDM Engines comes w. goodies?
hey
this might sound weird...but i have a 92 hatch w. a b16 and i/e/h..and a stage 2 clutch...my question is does anyone here get aftermarket parts w. ur engine..cuase my friend who got another b16 and he got an 8lb flywheel when we opended up his tranny..lol..weird huh? he has the b16 in a CRX and it doesn pull as hard as my car. dont b16 dies down like at 7500? my **** just pulls all the way to reline and still wanna pull. or i might just have an healthy motor...thats y i'm asking..i'm gonna check the cams to see if they are stock..how do i tell the diff. between stock and say CTR?
btw: both engines are JDM 2nd gen b16a

not necessarily ................... if all they added was a flywheel why does that equal abuse?? check the internals, that should tell you what's really good? or not?

Re: JDM Engines comes w. goodies? (Jswpstdoff)
Most likely if you add performace parts to an engine you are going to be pushing it harder. Also think about it, they only have these engines for 30,000 or so miles, which means they can just abuse the **** out of them for that long and the motor will take it.
Edit: I am not saying your engine was abused, I am simply giving info on recent experiences.

mine came with a greddy turbo kit j/k.. yeah if the motor has a lightened flywheel and other aftermarket goodies, then i'd say most likely the engine has been abused.. makes sense to me

When my motor came in I was SOOO happy to see that it was bone stock and healthy. Damn it pulls good.
Aftermarket parts just scream "I've been raped!"

Do a compression test... Like it was said before if it has aftermarket parts, chances are it's been abused.
