Also, the B20Z and 99-00 JDM B20B is 146 hp, with a 9.6:1 compression ratio....and it comes with a knock sensor.

You said you got a B18B with 40 000kms for $1000 CDN, where did you buy it from? I'm curious to see what else they have

Whats happening champ, if I were you personally if you have the funds, sell your B18B, scratch the B17A & go w/ a B18C1 170 hp already. All you would then need for flywheel hp is I,E & H. Good luck

i cant get a b18c for 1800cdn shipped and even if i could it would require too much mods to fit in my 91 integra

and the b17a would respond very well to mods, so with the extra money i would be saving on not buying a b18c i could easily bring the b17a up to 170hp



i just ordered the engine today , and im sooo excited that i will own 1 of only 1500 built that year (1993)
