    your friend dropping a valve isn't because of boosting. you can boost a honda if done right and tuned. it just depends on what your goals are. if you're looking for more power on stock internals the sr20 may be the better choice, but you can have 200-250whp on a stock internal b16. if you're happy with 200-230 on your daily driver and want reliability then boost what you've got. if you want more then build it or keep looking.

    true. my theory is, the SR20 is a solid block, meaning there are no sleeves to crack or walk during extreme pressure.. as long as I pull the rods, drop in some forged pistons, ARP rod bolts & head studs, and a metal headgasket.. the SR20 will out do my B16A built the same way..

    I hate to come this far with the civic, just to abandon the project, but my theory makes sense right?
