True , the smaller the snail the better for faster spool , lalo pa if built ang motor mo , kaya mga high boost for a small economy car .

BUDDYCLUB : di ko alam na almost same price pala yung B16 at B18C5 , maybe yunf B18C1 , a type R is a type R , the pride n joy of HONDA MOTORS . brand new ng B18C5 is almost $7000 .

why not just get a B18 Type-R Integra engine? Might be easier on the wallet.

to be more specific kse, B16B yung ka price ng B18C1. B16A is the 2nd Gen motor and the B16B is from CTR. And the last time I checked, B18C5 aka B18C Spec-R is $4,600.00; K20A is $5,800.00.

Kung mag F/I si B16 in the future while building his engine, stick with B16 which is far better than B18 for F/I.

I also agree with ghosthunter, why not get the B18C.
But like B16ba-type-RSiR said, B16 is lighter than B18 kaya nga gusto nya mag stick sa B16.

my advice to you B16ba-type-RSiR...

"Cross the Bridge when you reach the bridge..."

I have always thought of going ALL-MOTOR as this:

DIY everything, this is the essence of going all-motor, a real hobbyist who's not asking some shop to do it for you, all-motor is building YOUR OWN PRIDE and JOY.
