what's a k22? anyways b16's aren't bad for your first b-series swap but id suggest going with a b18b, more torque a little more fun

sorry bout that, didn't realize my typo. *h22.

b18b? I thought it would be the b18c1....heard those are great for turbo.

Any thoughts?

the perfect b-series motor to boost is the b17a1, but they can be hard to find but their perfect!

I'd love a b18c5.

It'd be like having sex with my engine bay.
