What to do?

[joheshy55]

ok i drive a 1999 acura integra LS with the b18 b1 in it. clean motor runs good. was curious if i should swap it for new motor or keep the one i have and maybe add a kit to it? if i did swap it was suggested that i swap it with probably a h22a or k20? which one should i choose. i dont know much about cars but i am just looking for ideas.

 

Thanks

I agree...keep it...maybe add a VTEC head...keep it nice and clean and enjoy driving it until it dies...

How many miles are on it.

if you really want to do something then do lsvtec. it will net you around 200+hp. swapping in another motor can be very expensive. a h22 is going to take up a lot of room and a k20 is a bitch to swap. the transmission is on the opposite side of the engine lol. and youll only get 220 MAX from a k20a type r

 

 

cost wise....go lsvtec. just get a b16a or gsr head. then a golden eagle lsvtec conversion kit(150) and a good tune

As far as i know, the motor has 85k miles on it, i just bought the car a week in a half ago. so im not really sure.

Don't fix what ain't broke! (or replace in this case).

 

keep it, add exhaust/headers/intake, run it till it dies (which will be a good few hundred thousand miles), then whack a bigger engine in.
