im going from b20 to d16 i want to hear what u guys gonna say about it since i got criticism from everyone else

may i ask why?

yeah man, two cams are always better than one haha . . . j/p . . . what are you plans for the b and d motors?

I give you props. Sometimes different can be alot of fun,and a good learning experience. I personally tend to go for "underdog " motors like nonvtec,but I geuss a REAL underdog honda motor is a D series,huh?



And like my brother (hsckris) asked, why? (just curious)

haha even the B series is the underdog now with the K series but to tell you the truth i just want to daily drive out here in cali it sucks man you get pulled over just for being low... and 2 ppl got state ref ticket just leaving the daym san jose state parking structure.

yeah i know you can... but im getting a D series for cheap... $50... what is the gas mileage for a d16z6 anyways? my b20 gets about 25 mpg but i always punch it

You should get at least 30 mpg in the city and 35-40 on the highway. D motors don't use a lot of fuel compared to the larger B series. $50 bucks for a Z6 is a good deal! Throw that in your Honda and boost it. Even with 5 psi and no intercooler you will have more power and torque than a all motor B20 plus 35-40 mpg.

i agree it is fun for new things... i have fun with my D

Long live the D! My first set up was Saab T3 turbo, HF manifold, OBX FMU, open exhaust, dsm blow off valve and no intercooler running 5 psi and I could smoke Integra Type R's equipped with intake, headers and exhaust...with about $1000 into my car (including the cost of the car!)

You think cali is bad for being lowerd in maine you cant go low becues snow and bumps lol. Most people dont expect a fast d-series good way to win some money

I have a '88 DX and I threw in a D16Y7 and a Si tranny last weekend. I didn't have time to install my turbo kit so I put on the stock air box and intake tube, Z6 throttle body, Z6 intake manifold and a Ebay header bolted to the stock exhaust. I am running a chipped PM6 with BRE. I raced my buddies B16A powered '94 Integra and he has a ebay intake, LS throttle body, '99 Si intake manifold, mild ported B16A head, GSR cams, AEM cam gears (set at 0), NGK plugs and wires, Comptec header and stock exhaust running on a chipped P30 with Crome. He has a LS tranny. We raced and I beat him to 75 mph when I let off. It was a bit wet, but I beat him by a car length, as he was at my back bumper. Not bad!

Yes. But not a B20. The problem here is that the B20 is considered a truck engine. And it is NEVER legal to swap a truck engine into a car here in California. I have dealt with this to some degree by getting a referee sticker for an LS and hoping the smog tech does not confirm the block code. This works for the most part. But there is always the possibility of getting your hood popped by a cop. For this reason, I have a spare LS motor just laying around in case I have to go to the ref again. But I myself am actually considering doing something 'different'. No, not D-series. I want allmotor power and torque. So I am STRONGLY considering an H23A. That way, I can just run it with the stock ECU and be all good with the State of California. Not to mention that I can probably fund the entire swap by selling a complete LS swap, a B20Z longblock, and a B-series Hasport kit (and maybe have some money left over for a header).

hate to say it but a integra with a LS tranny and a b16 motor sounds dog slow

Not only that but its a B16 powered 94+ Integra... those are heavy.

i like it but it depends on the car a big car needs a big motor like if you got a crx its light and with a d16 you be ok but if you got a teg or somthing like that it would not be a smart move

take a tip from the old school
thare is no replacement for displacement

Wow you cant be seriouse, I have a 92 LS with I/E and a lightened flywheel and I smoke civics all day long. Not to mention ive had 2 hatches and one coupe, so i know a little bit about what im talking about. Got a b18b waiting to go in for this summer.
