searching would have told you
shorter gearing always equates to faster accelleration

b16 having shorter gears means.......


(do NOT ask how fast/what time you will get...)

I don't mean to be an ***...but it's a built all motor B16...meaning high compression pistons, fully built head, etc. etc.

But you don't have a real number of what it's making? (mainly because 260Whp is quite a bit for a B16)

Regardless, I'd go with the B16 with LSD.

Well in order to get the most out of that set-up, you'll need to get it tuned on SOMETHING (Hondata, Crome, etc.).

No offense, but I don't see 260WHP out of that set-up on a stock ECU.

I just installed an Mfactory 4.785 final drive in my B16B tranny, and that thing rips like a bat out of hell.
