HondaSwap,
How's it?! My name is Brett, I'm 19 years old, and I just bought my first Honda. It's a 92 Si Shell, with Full interior. I love it, Absolutely love it. Paid 500 for it, body is completely straight, No dents, BRAND new paint, lowered on coil overs with 17's. I really am in love with this car.
Old owner took out the engine because he was going to swap it. He got fired, and had already sold the stock engine, thus.. No more Honda for bro over here.
Sooo I picked it up a few days ago because I saw it's potential. I was just going to go buy a stock engine for this bad boy, but then I saw how much was actually available for these cars. I'm not new to the auto-world by all means, I'm an avid Rubicon (that's a Jeep.) Owner/Crawler. Anyway, I want some power guys.
Who Doesn't? So I looked around a bit and saw this B18B and this B16A and what not. Well, I want a good Trq/HP Ratio. I looked at this B16A SI-R and it was 170 HP yeah but LOW in the Torque range, like 116 Lb.s. If I have to live with that, fine. If not, I'd like to crank some torque out of this.
SOO What Am I asking of you? I don't want to go under 2000 on this swap, so whats best for that. Also, whats a good website for the full swap kits? Including Engines and all! Thanks guys!!
