    your trying to compare a brand "honda" that was mainly made for economy "civic" vs a turbo-ed from factory "supra". the only honda on top of my mind that actually do some work is the s2k and civic type r.
    acura on the other is another branch of "honda" which in my opinion is the more "sporty" brand. "k series, j series"
    at top, 1.6L vs a inline 6 turbo, both class isn't comparable

    yes we have to swap motor to make some power, but most guys out there cry about jumping from a 1.5L/1.6L to a 1.8 b series - 2.4 k series
    stick a 1.5/1.6L in your vehicle and see if it'll even move.

    I've had a D16 that EASILY beat B16s. Not Supras though.

    The S2K isn't that fast in a straight line really and in the corners can be a handful, the Type R is no better than a swapped Honda.
