Never heard of a B16A5..hmm...


Does the JRSC take up more space than the original intake manifold anyone? If not then you're in the clear!

If it won't fit then there's always the electric supercharger. Not the boat fan but the REAL one that's actually an electric motor and a screw-type blower.

Just curious, with your swap are you using the Zdyne ECU? When you boost it are you going to get a Zdyne Gold ECU?

if you want info on supercharging a B-series in a CRX, check the link in my sig to see what's involved. BTW, i've never heard of a B16A5 either.....

I'll believe it when I see the block stamp that says "B16A5" , no offense but anyone can make a typo on a chart. You sure you don't mean 5 million series B16A?

from what I understand there are 2 1st gen b16a's . One series which was in the integra Xsi and then a five series motor that was in the EF SiRs.....The way you can tell is by the numbers listed beneath the B16a, they will start with either a 5 or a 1.

So, he has a 5 series from a civic or crx SiR.

^ That's what I figured, 5 million series, not B16A5.
