Default hatch b18 or k20

which would be the better way to go b18 or k20. I know the k20 has more HP but would it be easyer to just put the b18 in or should I just fork up the more money and just get the k20??

well what I really wanna do is just get the k20. The do all internals, an all motor. I dont really wanna do turbo. I think you get more respect with an all motor car.

you wont get respect if you dont know what you're doing and you are just dumping a ton of cash on things you dont know about.

search. its not like putting a k20 into a ef chassis is like dropping a b18. since ur noob *** is asking a question like this...do you even have an ef chassis yet? tell us this much, and you will find out a helluva lot more of what you will need to do. regardless...just stick with a d16a6 lol

I think if you tried jumping face first into this and went K20, you would find yourself in a nightmare.

It might be best if you stuck with the stock engine for now and kind of figured everything out first. Maybe start fromt he ground up, do the wheels, good susupension, new bushings, Integra brakes, and other touches to get the car back in good like-new mechanical condition. Then by then hopefully you know a little more about everything and can properly polish up your project with a good engine setup. From the sound of it I don't think it is a good idea for you to just jump into swapping a K20.
