I am about to undertake the rebuild of my B16. I was shooting for 175WHP with this setup.....here is my dilema...
I know that I will be making a limited amount of torque with this setup (110-115 ft-lbs.) and this setup will be going in my daily driven 4th gen HB. I am struggling with the realization that the B16 just "may not cut it" in terms of ultimate power figures that I will be happy with. I have never driven a ls/vtec or b20/vtec before or even a 2.0 setup of anytype and don't know anyone that currently has one....

Here is my question:

Is there anyone in the greater Seattle area that would be willing to meet me and let me drive their Ls/vtec or b20/vtec setup (with them in it of course)? I have plenty of vouches from guys in the RR/ AutoX forum...that is where I spend most of my H-T time since I race a civic in ITA....

I return I would buy you some beers or lunch or something along those lines....

Shoot me an IM or just post here and we can talk about it....

Thanks guys!

 

what about just going for a ride? theres an intec dyno day this month.. maybe you can see if someone will be present with a 2.0 setup

 

oh yeah.. just incase you don't read drag racing...

A 175 whp B16 is definetley something that is obbtainable. I don't know how to post links, but there was a recent post here that had a guy with a stock block , head NEVER been off, yielding a 10:4 compression ratio with bolt-ons and Jun 3's...laid down 185 to the ground. That motor rips....for sure, proud to see that one. Keep the faith in the 1.6 block brother, it won't let you down!

 

The thread was posted by "ghettoracer" and is titled "still loving my b16 block..........." Good luck man!

 

I read that thread that Ghettoracer posted...

I will have my ITA race car at the Intec dyno day this Saturday getting some runs in....

I will see if I can find someone there that would oblige....

Anyone else wanna step up?

how bout lunch with beers?

 

Anyone?
