Well, if you are going to purchase an engine for turbo, I don't see why you would buy a b16 unless you had very specific needs. After all, you could pick up a b18b for less, and get more power out of a low-priced setup. And for a high priced setup, there's not reason not to get a b18c of some flavor.

I don't understand why you would use custom length rods when you could pick up a GSR block for less. :a:
