ok, so i have a little situation here, i have a 00 ebp si, BUT i want alil more power and trq...i have a spare b18b, with a gsr head, pistons, rods, and crank...i can either build this completely, and throw it in my em, or just do a mild build on the b16 (higher comp pistons, valves, and cams...) this is my dd, and i want to keep this reliable and original, reliable more though, as cause im always traveling...i just want some inputs of what ya'll think i should do...pros and cons are much appreciated...
thanks

 

LS/v b16's are gutless

 

Yea but so will his lsv if it has gsr crank rods and pistons like he said

 

i here ya, talk about lack of power...ESPECIALLY at low to mid...ill see where this goes to...thanks

 

b16a

 

well i have everything, from the girdle guard to the valve cover...it just needs to be put together and whatnot...im just wondering what is best for daily, and reliability...

 

well, you can't just throw a girdle on an ls motor without align honing. so it won't just be a matter of assembling.
