Default Type R motor in Del Slo?

Whatup,

About to drop a Type R in a del Sol. Anyone have any tips, questions, quams about the swap? Think it is worth it? Was also thinking about a b16 SiR II motor. I dont know though, just gotta make the final decison. Let me know, any feedback would be helpful. Anything. Thanks.

Peace

I own a B16a3 Del Sol, and was driven in a guys B18C5 powered Sol, IMO the difference isn't huge, if you get a good deal on a engine with some more torque, go for it. I prefer the convienence of a factory engine, especially if you're inexperienced.

ITR motor is awsome not matter what car you drop it into.
If you have lots of money go for it, if not B16 is probably good enough.
