Re: new to Honda, need to know what engine to use
Well if you get a civic, it's likely it'll have a d15b engine as it is most common. Could always do a minime set up and turbo that, a little high of a compression for you if it's your first tune but will get you your 200HP mark, but the rods are weak so don't go much over. If I were you I'd do a swap first D16 will do, but a B series would be a lot better power plant and a lot more reliable.... Heck for me it's easier to find a LS b-series than it is to find another D16. Anyways thats a good powerplant, find a T3 for either, T25's are too ------ small but if it's a budget built it'd work. Guessing you'd know what else to get, if not search as others are gonna tell you.
