LS > B16 IMO, why u ask. It has more torque and very low compression meaning its ready for boost and can hold alot more of it than a B16 can on stock internals.

Just build the ls to take more revs.For 1k you could get a decent amount of nice internal engine parts.Then later on put a vtec head on it.

all of these crx owners better be at the crx meet in October.

Sorry to hear about the blow up but glad you are already ready planning another motor.

While LS and LS VTEC motors cannot be revved very high, they are fun as hell. One reason David had to let the LS VTEC go was due to the fear of overstressing the rods and making the engine go boom. David misses his but the Type R build is slowly taking away his pain.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
