do a search on turbo set ups using the vitara
there are some serious builds putting down around 400whp
i know theres one floating around for yonke's racing ive seen several times
400hp D16 on Vitara's - Turbo Civic Forums

 

not worth the time or money....... go B or H

 

totally worth it a gsr swap from h-motors is what? 3 grand? you could boost your d for under that and wave to that gsr as you pass them

 

thats funny i got fully built poor mans type-r for 1200.....so when ever you think you want to wave by to it let me know!

 

eh well you got me, you got a deal
anyways imo bottom line is he knows his engine and condition of his accessories and wether building or swapping you would want to replace certain parts, so far as cost effectiveness sticking with what you have is a plus. besides im used to being slow haha so i would take my engine off a fresh build any day than picking up someone elses engine that might of been abused. in the end its up to the op

 

what bout a b16a swap?....those run 1200 shipped and if its tuned right you could spray a nice shot on it

 

lol i dunno man id rahter have a boosted single cam than a sprayed on b16. i own a decent b series myself, but imo the only b series to get is a 1.8l or a 2.0l. if ur gonna have a 1.6 l u might as well just boos the single cam. n plus when u do go beatin on some b or h sereis ppl, u can laugh when u tell em its only a single cam at the next light. just my .02 . ive seen boosted single cams RAPE decently built n/a dual cam motors.

 

tru mine is bored to bout 2.0

 

gotta love the 84 mm bore!

 

so i should build the bottom pistons, rods etc, do some work to the head, stage 1 cam, intake, injectors and boost right, what u guys think
