bwhahahahahahahahahahahahaha :D




















:goodjob:

I would pick a LS motor... :goodjob:It's more fun to mod...btw you can put a type r tranny to it..... Fucc Vteccccccccc..........:2up:

99-00 spec b20b- Horsepower: 146 hp Max Horsepower: 6200 rpm
Torque: 133 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 4500 rpm
Redline:6800rpm

LS b18a-b: Horsepower: 140 hp Max Horsepower: 6300 rpm
Torque: 124 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 5200 rpm
Redline:6800rpm

Looks like the B20b wins.

b20>ls b20 is more powerful and cheaper, you may chirp third with the right trans on it

but.. power? =D i think LS has more potential but i really dont think imma be boooosting unless i crave it. i just wanna be able to chirp second.

come you diiicks! i want INPUTS!!!!! if LS, i have to wait a while so i can save money lol. i wanna satisfy with power if i get either of these.

ANYWAYSSSSSSSS reps for inputs

got a b18 and 5-speed tranny i'll sell you for 100.. needs rods piston rings, bearings and to be re-assembled..

sohc it...and then boost it. atleast that's what I would do

id say from experience...d15b...kha if you never been in neo's..then ask timmy about it

Why not the b20? same price

A d-series would be cheaper and easier, but you would get better tourqe and horespower with any b-series motor than d-series.....

i got an ls motor and it barks second and third so yea i would go with the ls motor for sure

With 400hp, you can only chirp 4th? Try harder!

plus u have left over money for more parts like a cam and such.


But I voted LS because my eg hatch loves the LS that is pulling it down the street

d15b is slow.

so is LS swap, but it has torque at least.

That's my plan for a later project!

I thought this thread died off a long time ago :thinking:

B16 arent all bad just the ones that dont have boost to make up for the lack of torque
