so 4.5-5k for that, when he could get a b16 for 2-2.5k or b18c1 for 2.5-3k and use the extra money for something else. :nono:

Eh, maybe your CAI will fit. BTW, there is no such thing as a b16c1... there is a b16a, b16b, b18b, b18c1, b18c5... maybe a couble more. b16a is in the Civic SI's... b16b is Civic Type R (JDM). B18b is Integra LS (non-vtec), B18c1 is Integra GS-R, and B18c5 is Integra Type-R. I know, too many things to keep straight. If you swap, you will have to buy parts for whatever car the engine was from. It's not really that much trouble, unless of course they just won't fit in your engine bay... but most headers, etc. will be fine.

You could always not swap and just turbo your D16Z6. Lot's of people have good results with that.

the B18C1 is good for turbo. Don't get the B16b or B18C5 if you are going to turbo later.
