Shorter gear ratios = better acceleration.

And your point is...?

It will take you forever to get there and when does top end matter?
Drag racing? No.
Road racing? Not really.
Street driving? Lets hope not for everyone's sake.

after looking at web pages all night (havent gone to bed yet) the b16a seems to be the best canidate for power potential. And i can get a b16a for $1770, so im ordering that today with the new mounts and shifter and stablizer rod. After thats installed turbo and hondata.

Should have gone b18b w/turbo...
b16 is overhyped IMO.
