these motors are really cheap, and right in my budget... (actually cheaper than a low mile A6)

has anyone had any experience with a VX motor? I heard the vtec isn't as good, but if it pulls the same / harder than an A6 - this should be the way to go

anyone have some more info on these engines, like HP / TQ

Hope this helps ... I was wondering the difference btween the jdm and usdm that makes it 92hp vs. 130
1493cc
4 cyl, 16 valve
SOHC VTEC-E
9.3:1 c.r.
PGM-FI (MPFI)
92 bhp @ 5500
Redline: 7000 rpm 97 lb-ft @ 4500

 

I've seen some D15's that were turbo but had a Z6 manifold with A6 head. Didn't too bad and was pretty quick. The only really good part about the VX is the head since it's a roller rocker but if your looking for gas MPG that's the way to do it but for performance I'd start with a Z6 bottom end, VX head, and a Y8/A6 manifold and start from there.
