I mean the Import Draggers are putting 150g's + in those motors and they are running B16's B18's... I know how I am If I can have it done or do it to a motor I won't be satisfied until its done, and I don't have the wallet to support a b16..... That would be a dream engine... I agree that the most economical way is the H22 then a little motor work and a S/C and your ready to roll and only about 6g's poorer...
dude.... putting a b16, even with a stroker kit... yadda yadda yadda, in an accord is just silly. sure the hp numbers look good on a b16, however thos hp numbers are worthless if you don't have the torque to get into the power band. bottom line the accord is way too heavy to be effective with a b16 under the hood. on an accord the H22 is the way to go if you want a full NA setup. f-series engines are my personal favorite for FI setups because with slight modification they can be made to handle stupid amounts of boost.

another note.... the import draggers you talk about also use about a 100hp shot of n2o to spool up those retarded big turbines under the hood. does that mean it's effective or streetable? the answer is no. also they're running that in a civic, CRX, or teg frame.

and another note... the fastest NA honda in the world is a CRX with a built H22 under the hood. it runs the 1/4 in about 10.5-11 secs. for a NA setup H22 is the way to go.
