do you think that a New d16 would be able to take 16 psi for very long? didnt think so... Oh and a b18 swap huh? 3500 for the engine + all the other goodie you have to buy when things go wrong? but what happens when you break your b18, you better have deep pockets. Or even if you were talking about a b18b, sure that sounds fun, more tq, but oh wait? spending twice as much to turbo it? man, mark one up for the D.
The only way i would take a dohc, if i was doing what wcs is doing...
