i have been looking for engines for my 94 EG hatch, and i have been considering the B16A, along with the B18B, and i had a few questions:

----
I read somewhere in one of the posts that it's a national law that you can't put an engine that is older than the car in it?

With basic bolt ons, intake, exhaust, v-afc, and fuel mods, what kind of horsepower/torque can i expect between the two?

I have been searching prices of places for a while, and i've found a place called total-boost.com. does anyone know of their service quality and whatnot? they seem to be about $200 cheaper than hmotorsonline.

With the B16A, it will prolly be gen1 so how straight-forward is the swap? and how hard is it to do?
----

thanks everyone, and please don't post debates between the B16A and the B18B. i've been through it before. thanks alot!

 

It's depends where you live about the age thing . I live in N.Y. and they don't care what you do as long as its all legit ! And about the motor look at this site to compare Hp ! Hope it helps !

Thanks for the site, i've been there before. it's a great site tho. thanks again!

 

also, has anyone done a RHD conversion? and how much work is it?

 

too much

 

I got a first gen in mine and it wasnt hard to convert over to obd-1 at all...i got my motor for a steal but if you are really interested the price becomes about equal to the second gen b16 once it is all said and done....my .02 cents

 

yeah i'm gonna try to get a B16A2, it'll be easier to hook up, and i won't have to convert to obd1. and about that RHD conversion, that's gonna be a :nono:, too much work for me, and plus, it'll draw too much attention to my car, i want a sleeper..
