1. my point was that, that was not in the debate in the first place

2. ummm, my point was that if you spend that $2500 on building the internals to be able to handle that kind of boost, you would have a D series motor with nothing more than built internals and still less hp than a B16 all the while spending almost as much as my swap costed me

3. yes that was lame, once again, know what you're talking about before you say something

4. you can use part of or the whole axle from a H series motor

5. yes, be able to run twice as much, all the while I always have my power on tap and ready to go along with the reliability of a stock Honda motor, but once again, you act like you can just slap it on and it will be all good. Yup, you can build the D series motor to take a 125 shot for 2500, then buy a kit for 500, but then you're gonna need colder plugs and an aftermarket ignition which will be another 100, then you're going to need some good wires which will be about another 80, then you will need to increase the fuel delivery which will be about another 250 for everything, then you'll have to invest in a new clutch will be about 400, and then you would have to get some dyno time to tune it (unless you want to risk running lean and getting detonation) and that will be about another 70 for 3 pulls and you will have to retard the timing which will cost more money unless you rent or buy a timing gun to do it yourself. That comes out to about $900 in all. NOW, I can have my swap for $3000, nitrous kit for $500, set of colder plugs and ignition for about $100, retard my timing a little which I didn't include with the D16 so I won't with the B16 and still run with the stock clutch, have $300 left over and still have the same amount of power as the D16 so try again man, you were SO close!!

6. That is a very minimal weight difference and won't do shit

7. Glad you finally agree with the person who is right

8. How do you know that?? If I wanted to waste my money, I could go out, get a turbo, run 20 psi with built internals along with a big shot of nitrous, heavy duty clutch and everything needed to do it safely and reliably, push more to the wheels than they are and still have plenty of money left in my account, so where do you get off saying that?? Sorry, I save my money for things worthwhile that are good investments...I use my pocket change for aftermarket shit on my car.

9. WTF are you linking me to that thread for? What does that have to do with anything?

10. Calling me an internet retard just because you have no experience and no clue on this subject at hand and I keep proving you wrong is uncalled for.





pdiggity, sorry if I tell the truth...guess ya don't want that here or something
