jdm d15 b or sohc zc

whcih of these motors would be better to get good power out of in an eg. im leaning toward the d15 because i have done the swap and it was cool. i found sohc zc on ebay that caught my eye and i just want to know what year car it comes out of and if they are any good

The swap will be almost identical for either. Get the D15B & boost it IMO.

Re: (Sand1)

I wasn't aware of sohc zc's, but I'd imagine they came out of jdm si's and crx's. Not the SiR. Um, if you're looking at building a cheap boost project I'd go the way of the ZC, she's got plenty of stock power, and I believe they handle boost well (check http://www.homemadeturbo.com). It all depends on what you want man, that and the obd 1 ZC's aren't as plentiful as the obd 0's. So goodluck on w/e route you take

Re: (4door93civic)

Correction it is more like 18psi with stock Rods, Vitara pistons, and a nice setup. At least this is hat I have seen back home in P.R. and with out any expensive programable ECU.

your a ******* idiot read that back to yourself and then smack yourself thoroughly

the ZC came in 3 variations, all of which were 1.6l's. There was the DOHC, the SOHC, and the SOHC vtec models. Get it right
