as of now i think im going to stay with the z6 but i will probably run the d15b while im building the other motor.

 

damn lemme tell you what to do.

(1)get d15b for free
(2)sell d15b that you got for free
(3)send the money to AgentMurdoc@hotmail.com
(4)if you are too retarded to follow (3), use the money to boost the z6
(5)poop on the next b-series you see

 

A stock B16 puts down 130 whp at best, and is very peaky.

A correctly tuned turbo D16 or jap D15B/VTEC should handle 200whp nicely, with a very broad powerband. You can ush more if you don't care much about ring lands or if you've built the engine.


JDM D15B VTEC? They have the D16 rod, nukka, much beefier than the usual D15 bit.

 

ok so would it be better to build and boost the d15b or the z6? which would be the most HP route?

 

Yes, and yes.

 

My bad...tech at Honda told me that the d15b's have different rod journal sizes...I still say use the z6 due to parts availability and price. Just my 0.02 though.
