wellll... if you go to http://www.jdm1.com, you can see the listing of prices. The big diff is power output and price. Now, if you are wondering the difference between b16a2 and the b18c, its really only 10 hp and 10 lb-ft. HOWEVER, if you are wondering the difference between the b16a1 and the b18c, then there is a bigger in difference, not so much in HP, but almost 20 ft-lbs of torque, which we all know is critical. Furthermore, if you are gonna spend the(prices from jdm1.com) 3400 on the Teg engine, why not save a grand and just throw in the Prelude h22a? WAY more HP, and WAY WAY more torque. I had this same dilemma, and, if finances allow me, i will be swappin an h22a because, really, why not?

 

do NOT buy from http://www.jdm1.com!!!! I cannot stress that enough. I have only heard horror storries about them.

 

i wasn't suggesting buying from them, i was merely directing him there to show him prices. But yes thanks for the warning!

 

 

if you look under "search", you would find A LOT of posts regarding the same thing.
