hey guys i need help in deciding what to do with the b16 in my 90 crx. in your opinoin what would be the fastest all motor setup but still streetable but still pretty sick. are u guys thinkin like CTR pistons or any info would be good for head and bottom end thanks

 

positive you want to stay na? it would be cheaper and just as reliable to go fi assuming you still wanted about the same hp. think hard man... 6 psi would probably make the same or more than you are expecting with an all motor setup.

NA = $ what power goals do you want. B16 and 200whp NA is a lofty feat not had by many...

 

I am going to recommend this because for the amount of money you'll end up putting into your B16A, I don't think you'll be happy... Get a 1.8L block to start with... B18C (1.58 R/S ) is my first choice but I have absolutely no problems with LS/CRVTEC's... Due to their longer strokes (87.2-89.0mm's) if you plan to build your motor with OE parts (i.e. PCT slugs, etc) you'll get a lot better static compression ratio... OS PCT slugs in you B16A will have you at about 10.85:1 which isn't anything special power wise... If you were originally planning on sleeving your B16A up then you could go that way but you're still gonna get more power for less money goin with the 1.8-2.0L 270mm block... That's what I'll leave it at for now but let us know more about what you are expecting and we'll see... Peace
