Negative. B18c has more meat between the cylinders for boost! :boobies:Originally Posted by HachiDori
m20s have alot of boost potential... and 2 more cylinders... and torque... lol

But he said S52...the S50 and S52 are bored out versions of the M50/M52 block. In stock form they can't hold anywhere near the boost you can run through a M52. I believe Ulysses (CardCounter) still holds the record on a stock M52 block pushing about 25psi making 704whp before bending a rod. He daily drove it in the mid 600's for a long time beforehand.
You definitely can't go wrong with a M20 though, e block for even more torque and you can push 20+ PSI through it in stock form. I've seen numerous ones with 200 to 300k miles making well over 300 to 400whp...
i only said m20 because im assuming this car is a 325 and came with an m20.
i hate honda engine swaps, and this one especially because youre putting a small, torque-less engine in a heavy ass car. its kinda backwards if you ask me.

e30 is heavy?! It's over 300lbs lighter than an Integra/Civic before pulling out the cast iron boat anchor, lol!
My e30 is a 318i with an M10b18 so going to an all aluminum 200hp 8,700 RPM engine that's practically 1/2 the weight would be a substantial improvement over a stock engine... despite barely having 140ft-lbs torque on a good day. On the other hand obviously the M10 can be BUILT virtually without limit with versions ranging from 75hp to 1500hp.
On a side note, I'm really putting an M52 in it with a GT30R...but laying the rarest Honda valve cover on top of a M10 block to piss off BMW owners is fun, proving how stuck up and close-minded they can be.
Back the bus up. I think most don't really care but we only heard m52 forever... then see what looks like a bolted in 2.0L Honda motor was a letdown.e30 is heavy?! It's over 300lbs lighter than an Integra/Civic before pulling out the cast iron boat anchor, lol!
