What's are your facts behind your chose...

I understand Bauley has done the mini-me swap. Yet he chose the D15...

IMO - JDM D15 - more power, less trouble shooting and cost.

You don't have to **** with it to do it...with mini me you gotta pull oil jet, replace head, do the timing belt (which will be 1/2 tooth off)...its just easier in general. One thing about my mini me is that so much **** has gone wrong with it that I don't wish it upon anyone. The JDM D15B puts out more power, has a better rod stroke ratio, and is just a better motor and its honda built. If I could do it all over again I would have done jdm d15b. End of story.
