convert that thing to a 1.8L.
crank and rods from an ITR.
CTR cams, CTR pistons, B16 block stamp.

smash on ricers.

Turbo FTW, allmotor done right cost way too much, and is not worth it in the end. Spend your money correctly the first time and listen to guys who have done both(me), all motor is not even close to turbo.

i agree. i wouldn't use a b16b as a base for boosting. start w/something with less compression. if you are gonna go through the hassel of changing the comp. ratio, i'd start with a gsr motor. its probably cheaper than a b16b.
