d16y8 or a b16a2

[97turbo]

The pros and cons of fully building and boosting a d16y8 and b16a2. Would a fully built b16a2 be faster than a fully built and boosted d16y8?

Fully built DOHC > Fully built SOHC

A d16y8 can handle up to 220bhp thou, I'm in the same boat as you! Everyone is telling me to go for the b16a conversion but I feel that the d16 can be alot easier installed, time wise and money wise!

I might just go for the d16y8 and supercharge it or maybe even turbo it not sure yet!

turbo the d, it'll be a fraction of the cost of the fully built b-series if u go all out on the d16.

well so far i have the d16 fully built (besides headwork) and i turboed it. but i also have the b16 at my house wating to be built. and was trying to figure out if it was worth it to build the b16 or finish the d16

why not slap the turbo stuff on the b16........ the only thing you would have to buy is a new header, change the fuel s**t a bit and get it tuned. with little odds and ends here and there......

if you have a fully built bottom end why not boost that motor? if you want to do a B just save and build that motor while the D is in the car.
