Everyone just assumes that b-series is the king of everything.

Don't get me wrong, I love D-series. I always wanted to build a n/a d-series (Bisi is my role model), but I always thought of building high hp d-series as taking risks. Boosting a stock d-series to 215-250hp is like revving a stock rod no arp rod bolt LS/Vtec to 8200 everytime. It can be done, but that's not really a chance I want to take I do like the fact that if you do go into a d-series, all the parts are alot cheaper. I gotta crown the B-series king because of all the R/D that every aftermarket company put into them, but that doesn't matter soon since d's and b's are the motor of yesterday.
