Yep, JDM 1.6l ZC SOHC VTEC

You will not see much gain without an OBD1 conversion and a P28 ECU. Proper dual map fueling and timing is a must.

Personally I would run PM3 pistons, ported A6 head milled .020, Y8 intake mani, and Y8 head gasket. That would yield 10.5:1 compression, and in the right chassis with the Si tranny would give B16s a challenge. Probably near 130whp.
