i didnt say a B18B was VTEC. i said if he is going to keep it stock it woul;d be smarter to put a VTEC B18 in over a non VTEC one.
srry but i still disagree, the non VTEC B18 is still a much better motor than a D16, it has more power and is a DOHC engine. i know u know about engines, u cant tell me that replacing a 130 hp SOHC engine with DOHC engine with like 150-160 hp is not going to make a diff. it wont be a huge diff but u will notice. especially if u swap in a close ratio tranny with it.
if u are gonna go forced induction the B18b is your best starting platform for a decent price.
I already have the b18b, turboing it was my plan from the begining. If I was gonna stay n/a i would have done a b18c1 swap or a k20 swap.
right now, I'm just trying to choose a good turbo kit to get for it. dunno which one I want.
