Hey guys,
I was going to swap my engines. About how much hp would I be looking at with a b16a swap, turbo, full exhaust, and CAI?? Should I go with a different engine?? I was deciding between H22a, K20a, b16a, and b18c. What is the aftermarket like on each of these??

 

aftermarket is plentiful for each. i suggest you keep researching after you said cai after turbo. :a:

go with a b18c1. a b16 will be piss slow in your ex until you boost.

 

Why not a K20 or H22??

 

if you have the $8k+ necessary for a complete stock k20a swap, go for it. h22's arent a direct bolt in.

that's just the engine. after buying everything else needed for the swap, mounts, axles, wiring, kpro, etc., thing's add up quick.

 

OH! what do u think I should go with snoopy??

So, are you saying a b16 is a bad idea?? If h22 is not straight bolt in is that not good or is it just not easy?? There doesn't seem to be much aftermarket for the b18. how do I search for aftermarket for a 99 Ex swapped b18??

 

An H22 in any 88-00 civic is going to be a much more dificult swap as opposed to any b16 or b18. I agree with Snoopy, id go with the b18c!
