I have the USDM Type R 2001 Head sitting here.

I wanted to know will their be an increase in power I know I need a Type R Block to but I don't want to buy a block yet...

So if you have had experience or have seen this setup what numbers does it put down..

Just want to get an Idea...
I have seen 1 person with this setup if I recall right he was doing around dyno tuned and tested at 178whp @ 8600 and 124trq...

 

it would be pretty much the same as putting type R cams on a B16 head.
The B16 and B18C5 heads are identical. Honda does some porting and polishing on the C5 head, but not enough to make a drastic difference.
Actually it's a super tame port and polish that is limited to the very last bit of port just as the mix goes into the chamber.

 

bump anyone else with more information!!!

thanks space!!

 

i agree with what was just said on the adding itr cams to the b16, what i think you mean boss is a cheap mans itr, adding a b16 head on a gsr block and internals making about 178 hp, they can make more just depends on how you tune em. but generally from what i hear the b16a2 makes about 150 to the wheels (170 crank) so im assuming it's about a 10 hp to the wheels gain, i might be wrong so youd be looking at 160ish to the wheels, just a guess from a nobody, someone else could have better numbers for you but that's my .02

add i/h/e get better results

 

You should put it on, you have leaking valve seals anyway, right? Plus , the mild port, the higher reving springs, the better cams, should help a bit. Plus, its newer than the old *** gen 1 b16 head. Sell the head on ebay, and rock the itr. Yes its the same head, but its worth the switch, especially cause of your seals. Ryan

nahh my b16a is running perfect nothing leaking everything is in TIP TOP SHAPE.

I did 144HP and 98 Torque with this Motor its a second GEN!!!

 

not worth it imo.

 

ok, cool, I mistook you for someone else. Ryan
