You can TURBo a V-Tec, but you can't V-tec a TURBo. This is HONDA power

- Sat Sep 04, 2010 5:19 pm #212168 I forgot to introduce myself.

I'm from Curacao N.A.
Car is imported direct from Japan.
I bought this one 2yrs back for $6k
It came with a bone stock B16A which I tuned for show with Spoon (not original) blue valve cover shown in above pic, a cheap ebay 4-2-1 header, and a apexi intake filter for more trotlle response.

After a year, I made a stupid decision to go for a B16B swap.
Sold my B16A local for $2.5k
Bought the B16B for $3.3k and payd a mechanic $850 for the swap
(some harness conversion needed for the swap)

The only good thing I found out of this is that for $1.65K extra spended in this project, I have now a 7 yrs newer engine (B16A was '93 and B16B is '00), and a LSD manual tranny.

I feel like the B16A is little faster then the B16B I have now, better I have gone TURBO. And the B16B is hight compress and NOT turbo friendly.
