Re:The Endless Dilemna D16A1 Mounts

I dont think that the a1's are shitty...they just arent popular. i ran well into the 13's in an 87 integ with just a gude head pkg and pacesetter header, on the stock ecu. that car put down over 150 hp to the wheels, so they do have potential. but yea they are really only good for putting into a 1g crx.

150 at the wheels eh, thats mighty fine for a a1. Let me just rephrase this again, the a1 isnt shitty, its just shitty for anything newer, I would never suggest doing one in a 4g+ civic. I mean if I had a 1g crx I'd totally go for a a1 turbo.

I have a d16a1 with and sl3 tranny its fits perfect all that's was different was one of the bolts on the back of the tranny wasn't in it but everything fit in it perfect
