You are comparing day and night. The B18B motor has more displacement, 1 more drumstick, and more torque than a D15. Unless you up the displacement, up the compression and do lots of work, don't attempt it. IMO, not worth the $$.

Read the thread at the top of the page "engine swaps" and then post in that thread.

Thanks.
