i just got a jdm b16 put into a 1991 crx si. all it has done is hasport mount and shift linkage and a short shifter and thermal exhaust. i want to get as much power as i can with out doing any internals and staying away from turbo's b/c i have my b18 for that. what would u recommend? i was going to do dc sport header, bore out the throttle body, skunk to intake manifold, spec 2 clutch, and cam gears. and possably port and polish the head. but i don't know if it is worth it i hear alot of stores about them being bad and good. any suggestions would be great.

 

1. its pointless, if your goning to turbo your ls just save your money for that. You said no internals yet you wanna Pnp the head and do cam gears. You could just do the easyiest thing and put a cam in there, id say kill yourself then post this in all motor section.

 

why not use the ls for an lsvtec build??? then add turbo. theres not too much you could do, except what you already said, for a n/a b16 without going internal.

 

I see, you want to be cheap on it. You won't get much out of it unless you put some into it. IF you want to leave the 'internals' stock. Which to me sounds like the block. PnP the head, slap the skunk2 stage 2 cams, something like a highend header and call it a day with something like 168hp.

 

You won't see much out of bolt ons a b16.

Searching will help you a ton.

 

thanks or ur help so far. what would u guys recommend to to get power out of a b16 then without puting a turbo on or indidvidual throttle bodies? what internally would u do?

 

dude search around, Heres something you can do i wouldnt do it but would be sweet to see 11k or so. Get the lightest rods and pistons and crank (could bore it out also and get the lightest **** possible), port the **** out of the head get springs/retainers, get a nice cam and rev the **** out of that thing.
