B18C1 = USDM GSR something like 170Hp 121Trq 10.1 Compression
B18C5 = USDM ITR something like 195Hp 130Trq 10.6 Compression
K20A = JDM ITR 220 Hp 158Trq 11.5 Compression
K20A2= USDM RSX type s 190-200hp (not sure)
K20A3= 160 hp
K20 is def better if you have about 9-10k to spend..
But for the same amount of money you can have either one of the B-series motors just as bad ass if not more...
if your looking for swaps and installs probly Talk to Vteckidd
The B18c5 is an awesome motor that does make 195 hp or 200 hp if from japan. However, they are hard to find and cost a crapload of money over basically all other b series motors. Also, if turboing ur motor, i wouldnt suggest the c5, it has really high compression and if u screw up any, well, u might be saying bye bye to ur nice expensive motor.
The c1 is also a great motor that can be turbocharged pretty safely and it
will cost a good bit less and still has 170 hp or 180 from japan.
The K20A2 is better than both of these. Not only does it have more power but the new k series makes a good bit more torque than the b series do, however, they are goin to cost a crapload and depending what car this is goin into, it will be hard to fit and cost a whole lot more to swap in.
If i had to choose, i think i would go w/ the c1 myself.
Looking for a shop that does quality work??
Mainstream Performance is the place to go
"Don't make excuses...make power"
no need to talk to me unless he wants it installed, you guys covered everything. good points.
B18C5=ITR USDM motor
All TYPE R engines come with a Limited SLip transmission, a closer Geared Tranny, More aggressive Camshafts, better flwoing intake manifold, higher compression pistons, and a better header. those are the main differences between a B18C1 and a B18C5
Basically, depends on your budget. if you have 8-10K tp spend, K series.
if you have $6000 to spend, do an ITR swap
If you have $5000 to spend, GSR swap
you get the point. what is your budget that would help us out alot more

Well im selling my car for 12500 and thinking of buying an integra, probly without a motor, so i will not have to spend TOO much on just a car. but I only have the issue of just only haveing a performance car, when I also do the show stuff to, so a nice paint job, rims, the engine, and the coilovers. So if you could help me out now i would appreciate it.
This is what you do you buy a shelled EK like mine, Drop about 4-5k into a GSR Swap after all that if you sell your car for 12,500 you still will have about 6k to play with as far as paint performance and other showstoppers are concerned. Just myPlus hatches just look so damn sexy.
sorry but i dont really look good in a civic. haha.
Fuck having yourself look good, its the car that matters. Hell I am short and stubly but I get hella compliments on my car even though it is Purple and I sometimes wear my pinks shirts![]()
