I have a 97 Intregra (my baby), but right I need some speed, i was considering a h22 swap but I have been hearing about losing a/c and shit, any which engine do u think would be a suitable candidate for me considering that i will be using nos.

By the way, currently it is a 1600 in my car, lame uhh, but my baby is the prettiest integra on wheels but i want it to be beautiful and fast, please help me out - I want to eventually run at least 12's.

First of all, what is your budget? What version integra; gs-r, ls,etc.?

We are gonna need a bit more info on the car first .

especially since you said it was the best on wheels, lets see some pics.

it is a b16 engine, gs-r model

boy is that ever a contradiction. you seem pretty set on the fact that its a 1.6, yet the gsr comes with a b18, which means its a 1.8. a gsr already comes with a very nice motor, so i say do some work to that. prep it up for nos if you must use it, but i dont think a motor swap is what you need.

that makes no sense,


the GSR is a B18, why would you wanna downgrade?

Myabe the kid is an idiot,The world is full of them.:D

some people actually do swaps from a B18B to a B16 engine. it may not make sense whatsoever, but the b16 has the greatest rod to stroke ratio near the "perfect" ratio. it makes a very good candidate when you want to go all motor with a heavily raised RPM. i do suggest that who ever does the swap, either lighten your car or add some i/h/e to replace the torque that was lost during the swap.

Well with that purpose it makes more sense

U don't need NOS to go fast. Just some Smart MODS.
