why the hell'd you put a b16 into a GSR? dynos of B16a1 and B17a1 please

ok, first, does the B16b really put out 210HP. I know the USDM B16a is 160 and jdm is 170 but Ive always seen 185hp when reading about B16b and there is no usdm B16b, right?

so is it 210 at the fly and they rate it at the wheel with 185?

if it has 210 HP stock, im fine without FI.

but just for S&G's what would the B16B have for power if it was running 5 psi boost. it might be worth the $$$ to me.

cuz I dont wanna have a car with a CTR engine and then some punk with a GSR and a supercharger his dady bought him beat me.

well its just like this comparison i always use with my friends. if i have a bmw e30 m3 (the m3's produced between 1984-1992) and you have a tubrocharged b16, which is a better car? my car is worth a lot more, will last a lot longer, and gets a lot more respect although he may be faster. now you guys seem to just be concerned with the next guy beating you. and thats fine then go with a crvtec or b18 turbo or even a b16A turbo. but the b16b is more of an engine for prestige. you should be able to smoke most people on the street with the CTR motor not to mention youll get a lot more attention and credit. and actually id love to see a hatch with a b16b race a gsr with a turbo, only if the gsr had stock internals, no crazy turbo setups. but i think the b16b would be able to keep up with if not beat a turbocharged b18 if he doesnt have new pistons, rods running 20psi of boost.

so its again up to you but its a COMPLETE waste of money to buy the b16b for its in the sky price then spend all that money to ruin its worth by lowering the compression and turbocharging it which totally the opposite reason why the CTR and ITR were built. but then again it is your money. i would never turbo a b16b. it would cost way too much money and i wouldnt ruin such a beautiful engine

and no there are no usdm b16b's. i dont know where the 210 came from though. ive never heard that before. i highly doubt it puts out more than the ITR.
