element Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 OK OK i may have asked the wrong question at first. SO what is the best engine that can be turbo charged that can fit in a CRX?
Chubs Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 This is a VERY tough answer and a large debate on this, mostly depends on what you are looking for, I would say out of the engines to choose from the B18C1, LSVTEC (B18B w/B16 head) H22a, D16y8 are great choices. some would say a B16a but I absolutly hate them
..SSR.. Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 B16A. What other Honda FWD Honda engine can you get 600whp out of with a stock block?
Kastigir Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 I'm a big fan of a B18A/B built like a brick craphouse, but that's just me.
Attaus Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 B16A. What other Honda FWD Honda engine can you get 600whp out of with a stock block? K20 I'd say F20B or B18A (just for availability of parts).
xxscaxx Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 you cant compare a K20 to a B16. B16 - straight swap, cheap. K20 - crazy modification, expensive. built b16 turbo = just k20 swapped in. b16 turbo>straight in k20. then again, i much rather have a k20 than a b16 b/c its rare. but when you look at it money wise, b16 pwns.
..SSR.. Posted December 4, 2006 Posted December 4, 2006 K20 isn't rare anymore. K20's have weak rod bolts.
Pyrorocketeer Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 weak rod bolts? you mean you guys that are going turbo (or NA for that matter) aren't replacing factory bolts with ARP anyways?
Ben. Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 Boosted GSR motor on a tune hasn't failed my heavy ass ek hatch yet.
..SSR.. Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 I'm talking about the best stock engine to boost.
Pyrorocketeer Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 He didn't say stock. He just said best engine, block wise basically.
Kegger Posted December 5, 2006 Posted December 5, 2006 Best stock engine for boost would have to be a D16Z6. Nice low compression and strong everything.
Ben. Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 Best stock engine for boost would have to be a D16Z6. Nice low compression and strong everything. lmao..something's missing though..you know.. ..one of those camshaft things? the second one, at least.
Kegger Posted December 6, 2006 Posted December 6, 2006 Dude you don't need two cams to be fast. There are NA Ds out there runnin 11s. So don't hate. And SSR, why am I so wrong to you. There are more people than you on here who know a thing or two about motors.
..SSR.. Posted December 7, 2006 Posted December 7, 2006 1. D series rods are paper clips. 2. D series heads flow like crap. Dual cam is overrated. N/A F22's are making 300+whp all motor.
Rick B. Posted December 7, 2006 Posted December 7, 2006 SSR, whats wrong with the b18c1? the head flows pretty well on a gsr and the only other head i can think of at the moment that flows better is off the ctr motor.
..SSR.. Posted December 7, 2006 Posted December 7, 2006 Nothing is wrong with. Just the B16 can make more power stock. CTR head is the same as the ITR head. I like the C1 head over the B16 head for street and track setups. B16 for drag.
Ben. Posted December 7, 2006 Posted December 7, 2006 Oh there's no hatred intended, however..I've seen MORE stronger b/h/k motors than I have d series motors. That's just ME though. No opinion being stated.
xxscaxx Posted December 7, 2006 Posted December 7, 2006 u've seen higher horsepower dual cam engines than single. they can make a lot more power but singles shouldnt be underestimated if done right.
Ben. Posted December 8, 2006 Posted December 8, 2006 u've seen higher horsepower dual cam engines than single. they can make a lot more power but singles shouldnt be underestimated if done right. Obviously, but that's any motor/car combination with the right amount of money and know-how.
Hatch92 Posted December 8, 2006 Posted December 8, 2006 i've seen some quick d's but i can't say i've personaly seen a d beat a b. i've heard it but havn't seen it.
