B16a transplant or D16 high boost turbo?

[peterj]

currently really in headache mode because cant decide on this 2 option..... i know that b16a is really lack of low end torque in stock form while d16 is other way.... however, i have been quote for a pricing to high boost my d16 that will similar to transplant a b16a...that is why i cant decide on this 2.... should i turbo high boost the d16? or get a stock b16a, driving it normally in stock 1st then turbo it in future?all sifu pls help....

i consider this 2 factor only, reliability and fuel consumption........

''reliability and fuel consumption'' no power in mind..?

It depend on the application of the vehicle, drag or track? If just street then dun waste money on it, save up to buy a better car. Keep the old 1 for daily drive. When it comes to mod, there is no benefit in reliability and fuel consumption.

Go buy VW POLO GTI... just saying.

u know what i'll advice sir, always going for the least expensive way, and most importantly with a charger

Do you really insist to turbo your car? If you dont mind me asking, what is the use of this car? Street? Daily? Weekend? Race?

But since you said FC is important, I'll say B16 transplant but make sure you are light with your right leg.

And coming from a Honda owner, I wouldn't choose to turbo Honda's. I think they're meant for NA. Just my opinion. In the end, it's really up to you.

going for b16a, then save up for turbo..... since the b16a low to mid end torque sell separately, unless b20b...... here got lot of b16 turbo dy..... mainly low boost for improved low end till their 5k rpm roaring.... impressive power output also...

I myself face similar problem. Very headache. My 4AFE engine of toyota make is going to kaput soon. Give it maybe 1 more year. I either transplant blacktop or rebuild and boost it. Similar performance and almost same amount of $$. Around 6 - 7k. But is transplant, need to spend huge amount up front. If rebuild and boost, can do step by step. Can rebuild first, then buy parts slowly and then eventually fix all in.
