I haven't got a clue, hopefully when my dad gets a little bit better.

I do have a rather big update coming up soon, spent a few hours in the garage recently to take my head off other things.

Inshallah he does.

Been collecting loads of bits for the EF in the meantime.

eBay.com is my new best friend.

There is no replacement for displacement, especially in a NA engine.

Besides, my main reasons are:

More Torque
More Power (I hope)
Freshly built engine, so less burning oil

...and the buzz of having done it (almost) all myself.

I should be knocking on the door of 220bhp with my spec.

Nothing insane but enough to keep me happy...

...for a while.

I've not had any personal experiances with B20's but I've heard of a few reliability issues, that might have been down to the engine builder though...

When it comes to a JDM B18 engine, I've never heard of any reliability issues on a standard engine and if you can find an unopened, low mileage engine I reckon its got to be tougher...maybe if you had any burning oil issues it was down to the engine being out of a hard driven EG6 rather than a low mileage Integra.

On the other hand as you said there is no replacement for displacement so the tourque figures should be up

243bhp sounds tight

Thanks for the input, I knew all that anyways.

Il carry on with my B20 adventure and see where it takes me.
