if you are staying N/A I would go with b18c if u were going F/I I would go with b18c. B16 is good but I would go with the B18c if I had the choice and build from there.

imo if i were to go na of course you would go with the b18c but with fi i would go with a b20 block and ls tranny...cheaper than b16 with a good platform...plus you could also go na and drop a b16 head on in the future...

Boost a B16.. You should be satisfied with 240-250 whp from that setup. LS/VTEC's and B20/VTEC's need to be built to use their full potential. And the CRV block has thin sleeves. Stick with a factory VTEC motor and boost it.
