After some google searching it appears to be a variation of the JDM SIR-II motor.

So, to the original poster, yes it is faster because it has 10 more HP.

a lot of us don't know what exactly the A5 consists of. If its the same as the JDM spec (P30 pistons) then its the same as the B16A. If its like the US spec (PR3) then the B16A is better.
