I recently got a jdm b16a and was wondering what the average time was to put it in? I have read tons of different times that people have posted but none seem to be an average. I have an ek if that helps.

at a shop? or swapping it yourself?

if u have everything u need lined up, and u know what your doing... then it should take only like 4 hours. if u work non-stop.

i assume its your first swap... and u probably will run into some problems. so maybe 2 days.

right now, i am taking my time but all total maybe 6hrs and its my first swap so shouldnt take you much more then that

my swap was done in 4 hrs, but the AC install was like 2 more hours on top of that

EG TYPE-R

if its your first it will take more time for sure.
i know i didnt have all the small parts needed but was all done as soon as i had them. we were able to do allmost everything in one sitting with some messign around

Took me 4 days, swapping from USDM D16z6 to JDM B16A.

All I know is the shop that did mine had my D16 out in 45 minutes. I left after that, so I don't know how long to put the B series in. I would say air tools, a lift, and something to slide the motor with will greatly reduce the time.

Same here.. b18b though...

air/power tools will cut time down a grip.

and a lift keeps you off the ground.
good luck, it shouldn't take you more then a day. yake your time and do it right though
