Thinking of starting a new project, what engine should I use?

[allmotoronly]

I prefer the Euro-R engine over the type S due its subtle differences. The cams in the euro are not quite as hot as the type S, but the euro-r intake manifold more than makes up for it. I have seen a euro-r engine with type S cams put down around 210whp, which is probably about 235 fwhp or so. The euro-r tranny is a lot better than the ATTS type S tranny which is identical to a USDM prelude SH tranny. Most people think the jdm type S engine and the Euro-R engine are the same, but the cams and intake manifolds are different. the bottom end has the same specs though.

yep... I concour with this you man...

here is another choice to consider. the prelude SIR spec S. Same damn engine as the type s but has a single runner intake manifold as the euro r. The only damn reason this engine doesn't beat the type s engine in performance is because it didn't get the 2.25" exhaust system from factory like the type s did. sir spec S tranny is also the same as the usdm sh/base and jdm type s. The only difference is that the T2W4 sir spec S tranny has LSD; unlike the type s and sh bullshit electronic shit that only kicks in when your pretty much going to die if you don't hug a corner at full throttle at high speeds. I can't wait to get rid of in a couple of days ...

^^^disregard all of this... I just read that you already had the sir spec s engine....
