All in all, hypothetically of course, if you dropped in a b16b, your car would be significantly faster.
I don't think that was the point I was trying to get at. I'm assuming this kid has yet to buy a b16b. You know how much those things cost? Shipped to your door it would be over 4 grand, not to mention I doubt he would know how to do it himself seeing as how he doesn't realize that any B series engine fits in any b series car. But thats besides the point. With that ~5 grand he spent on putting in a fairly torqueless engine, you can build a setup that has the same hp numbers with loads more torque.
Yes we realize that capabilities of the b16b, but for the price, there are many better, economically sound options for an Integra.
