2.0 VTEC PROJECT (Score: 0, Netiquette Foul)

06-28-2005 12:29

HI Y'ALL I GOT A B16A1 IN A 94 SALOON THAT I'VE BEEN LOVING FOR OVER A YEAR NOW (NOTHING LIKE THE SOUND OF PUNCHING THE VTEC POINT IN THE MORNING)

UNTIL HOWEVER ON A TRIP OUT INTO THE COUNTRY I NOTICED IT WAS LACKING ALOT OF TORQUE NESSECARY TO CLIMB THOSE BIG OLE HILLS.

SO I GOT TO WONDERING ABOUT FITTING 2.0 (CRV?) LOWER END TO MY B16 HEAD IVE HEARD THRU RELIABLE SOURCES THIS HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE I WAS JUST WANTING SOME INPUT ON HOW EASY IT WAS AND IF THIS WOULD BE THE WAY TO GO?

Do a Google search for "CRV-TEC" or something like that. It can be done, but I've heard the reliability is questionable.

Another option would be to swap in the K20 from the DC5 Integra (Type R, of course). Six gears, 210hp, and a nice amount of torque.
