decided to go all motor..help
Ok like the topic says i decided to go all motor. Right now i have a completely stock ej2. And i want something a little bit torquier, but i dunno which platform will be best to build off. I am on a budget. I looked at some of the dyno graphs, but still dont know which swap. Thanks

Re: decided to go all motor..help (Initial Dizzle)
as stated above.
The ls/vtec (B18B) or b20/vtec setups will net you a good amount of tq on a budget due to the increased stroke. Their fairly cheap to pick up, but wont spin like a b16 or gsr right out of the box. You'd need to get a vtec head and switch some things around.
On the other hand, if you just want a swap with some decent power, the GSR (B18C1) is probably right for you. Since there isnt anything to modify it's pretty much a drop in and go stock swap. The ITR (B18C5) motors are nice but despite minor differences and some hand porting to the head. This pistons are a little higher in compression and the cams slightly lumpier but you'd be better off with a gsr and having new pistons/cams put in later if you cant shell out the loot for an ITR.
The B16 is a nice choice for a d/d or a budget motor since the deck hieght isnt as high as the b18 motors. Their also pretty cheap and semi peppy.
If your a baller, you could always do a K series swap.
There's F series, H series, K series and B series. I'd suggest you do a little research and come back with some more specific questions.
