b17 is damn near identicle to a b16, just a different crank.

Well I have a B16 in my Teg and my Brother has a B18B in his rex.. His Rex will be boosting soon ... Both have pros and Cons I love VTEC but the Tq of the B18 kicks ***.. I like boosting non-vtec motors more so then VTEC spec.. its all in what you want

what i really want is what honda is all about, dependability I dont auto-X so i dont care if my handling is a little different w/ the b18 cuz of weight. More or less it comes to whatever one is cheaper!
