if you had a boosted d and your n/a b16 felt faster somthing was defiently wrong.. b16s are weak. ive driven alot of cars, and various b series. my boosted d16z6 and y8's were no contest. they had torque, n/a b series dont. i would put money on my turbo Ds against a hype r anytime when they were making more whp and tq on 7psi off a 14b.
but i am a fan of boosted Ds. anyways i probly will keep the LS, you guys confirm my thinking. basicly i just dont trust it, its a built motor and i dont know who built it. probly just better off sellin the car, got it cheap anyways. gona swap the front brakes/larger mc off it onto my lx though before i sell it.. free upgrade

I've got the Z6 race on video and I've posted it on here before, I'll dig it up if you're interested. As soon as we get some nicer weather and I get some bugs worked out of my CRX I'll post up a vid of my 91 HF B16 vs. the 88 HF SOHC ZC turbo.
Another thing worth mentioning is that I canned a '06 Si 2 out of 3 races. I missed 2nd gear in one of them. Plus he was driving the **** out of his car and I had to be careful with mine since about all my gears grind at high RPMs now, I've got bald Proxes 4 (no tread at all, almost belts), and my toe is out by several degrees. Even taking easy on the launch I was still coming out of the hole much faster than the Si. Maybe I've got a freak B16...who knows. I hang with cars running high 13's and low 14's all the time.
