Re: sohc to dohc (poz15)

Re: sohc to dohc (dirtySOHC's)
Hmm.. Well, it sounds to me that you're doing a direct sohc to dohc conversion on your stock D16Y8. Umm, you better put your hip boots on cuz someone is waist high in shit talking. As for a b series swap.. A B16A (99-00 Si) would put you about 30hp higher at the crank. The B18's (A, B, C5) are the shit. You could be pushing anywhere from 160 to 180hp range..

That's a pretty broad statement, but if he's talking about a motor swap, then yes, as for putting dohc on a sohc block, unless it's a ZC -- not going to happen.

Re: sohc to dohc (PEN15teamJDM)
GSR engine will ALWAYS spank B16 (considering them in the same type of car)! More torque = more pull off the line. Even my B18B1 pulls harder than B16 off the line.
