Currently been running a b16a in a eg hatch for a few years as a daily driver, spent several months redoing the interrior and got it a cheap 300 paint job, have some new wheels arriving soon and going to work on suspension.

current bolt ons aem cai, trust exhaust and a hi flow cat.


There is a junk yard near by that has a 18c (block only) for 200. How difficult and reliable is to swap it out with my b16a? building the poor type r. (on a college budget) and need a daily driver though .

Would it be more cost effective to do mild boost with a junk yard/ebay turbo set up?
