I didn't make my statement for a comparison of B18C's and H22A's, but rather in halfassed turbo vs proper turbo setups. Also, no offense, but either engine when properly turboe'd and tuned can make enough horsepower that traction is more of an issue than power (we're talking about street cars here). I think 2 equally built engines, one of each, would come down to suspension, tire and driver skill (on street tires, they'd both probably low 12, high 11 cars).

You can have the most complete turbo kit in the world and still blow your engine to pieces, I think we've all seen that before.
