Shut up. It's not very difficult at all.
H22>B18c Especially in an EJ chassis.

Re: (Slow_Boy)
is the b18c1 by any chance the integra gsr engine cuz i was told by a couple of friends that the integra gsr engine would be way better than an SI engine because the gsr engine is alot lighter than the SI

Re: (CivicLexani17)
yes the b18c1 is gsr b18c5 type R but i hate to tell you this but i think your friends are idiots because the SI engine is b16a2 which is alot lighter than a b18 or a b20b with an SI head on it (b16a2 head) but if i was you i would go for the b18c1 revs higher and better hp and torque numbers the b20b is a suv motor it redlines at 6500 rpms and it makes great torque numbers but lacks the rev that you need but as soon as i get some money its teggy time for my civic b18c1 is going in my 98 ex
