This can't be a real question. 1.8L>1.6L

Just a new guy trying to get his 5 and 15. Notice not only does he not know what engine to build he has no clue what he needs to build it with. Nor does he know if he wants to go N/A or boost. So no, I don't think this is a serious question.

Keep the B16B stock. Why would you want to tear open a perfectly good motor or any for that matter? Build the B18.

I would definitely go with the B18 personally. As far as how to build, boost/ NA, what are you trying to do with the car?
