5_liter_eater - hehehe of course your's will..considering I have no car.
purcivic - not that big of a deal..big deal but not that much of a problem.
Also..I bet a Civic w/ a B16A motor swap will whoop up on a EX with i/h/e. Considering, of course, that the drivers were equal.
D16Y8 + i/h/e + let's say you "modded it up" and built the bottom end and fuel tuning for ummm.....to handle a 100 shot of nitrous...that'll come to around...258 (+ or -).
^that's with i/h/e adding about 10hp and the bottom end work adding about....let's give him....20hp
JDM B16A (from
www.redime.com) + i/h/e + 75 shot of nitrous will come to around....255 (+ or -)
^i/h/e again adding 10hp. Plus the JDM B16A having a larger output of 170hp.
peace
You didn't even have to crack open the motor on the B16A - therefore it's easier to buy the swap..plus I'm sure the B16A has a bit more torque than the D16Y8..so that 3hp diff. isn't that big of a deal.
