Would you go JDM D15b or 96+ d16y8???

[AMD_Civic]

Just wanted to know which way people here would go for sohc...???
i choose to go jdm d15b with my experience on both motors...
But what would you do??

y8 IMO i think its a better platform but thats my opinion. there have been people hitting 250's and close to 300 around here on SOHC y8's with full race manifolds and bigger turbos. but honestly i don't know much about the D15b. but i think that a well built (aka built to perform what they were intended to do well with quality parts) should be able to achieve 240 with no sweat

:goodjob: i have a d15b vtec in mine fun engine

[bigdare23]

y8 because if you want to change the internals you are going to have to get custom parts. I believe the pistons are unique and noone makes aftermarket parts for it. The d15b block is different from all other d15 blocks.

d15b

[JDM onlyy]

I've driven both. If you like hearing VTEC get the d15b, but if you mod the y8 pretty well...that thing can pull. My friend had one that we were pulling on LS's and GSR's all day. Lol

[cxpilot22]

really any sohc vtec is fun

[GSRteg®]

I like the Y8 much better for everything. :yes:

[AMD_Civic]

iono....but the d15b still seems to be my choice...because of the pull once vtec opens up.. your body just jerks...especially for a sohc that can jerk you back thats pretty good...

Plus you can't beat the gas mileage you get with that d15b. 40+ mpg. Thats the **** right there!!! Lol

d16y8

[jbhondatech]

z6 or y8 with 1st gen integra pistons skunk2 cam bisimoto header skunk2 intake and hondata........this should be fun

[allmotoronly]

D15B, 4-1 header, ITB setup, and a good tune. I watched a video of a eg with that setup and he made somewhere around 165whp and the thing pulled like it had a B16A... pretty cool little motor IMO.

[BamzRexsi90]

D15b

[AMD_Civic]

im not talking bout hooking it all up.. but then again if i think about it.. d15b with with all that should be a killa...

[w3bcod3r]

maaannn... kill this thread...
d15 or d16 ... cute little toys... spend a lil more money and get sum serious...

[TheProfiteer]

man those SOHCs are closet monsters.

And damn near free to replace.

[rsxtype-svi]

i had a y8 in my 99 civic...with headers, intake, exhaust, the vtec just screamed...and you can feel it. even with some heavy chrome 17s on my car.......y8 is good

[EJdm]

i like my d15b but would love to get a y8 my boy back in cali had a y8 in a ek that ran 14.9 stock

[Master Shake]

i like my d15b but would love to get a y8 my boy back in cali had a y8 in a ek that ran 14.9 stockthat sounds like a sohc zc motor or something. i've seen people run them in a rex or somethign and just barely break into the high 15's.

[turboSOHC]

SOHC all day

[purppp]

y8 all the way!!!
