Default JUN crate engines: first hand opinions?

JUN offers a number of crate engine options, the most popular probably the 1.8L B16A which it claims to produce 240PS.

Who has used these engines before? What application? What engine management was run? Dyno figures? Reliability?

Cheers

Hahaha yes I've seen the RRP in JPY and it's quite insane. However, there are actually a few available 2nd hand where I live (Asia).

I know of at least 2 people who are using the JUN B16A (one in a 2nd gen Civic to replace a built B20VTEC, the other in a 96 Spec DC2R). Unfortunately I don't know those two well enough to ask them about their setups.

From perusing their website, it seems JUN puts in a lot of effort to ensure the specs of the engine are perfect. I'm trying to get some feedback on whether it's really that much better than something assembled at a local shop.
