Anyone know if it would be beneficial for me to use the CRV engine in my car? In stock form for now? And which mods will suit it better?

 

Lotsa tourque and lotsa fun.

Im not a huge fan of CRVTEC though. but throw some LS cams in there, do I/H/E with an lsd tranny and youll have nice lil set up.

 

an ls Skunk2 IM will fit on there too. maybe a milled head. yeah, could be fun if you dont want to rev it high, or boost it much. be a sweet budget build.

 

Sounds like what I'm looking for...I like to have low-end power...I almost never rev past 5K on the D16...I wonder if I could later try to make the civic AWD:-D

By not boosting it much...how much do you mean? under 10psi?

 

AWD would be fun. Heard of it being done but never actually seen it done.

 

maybe 4 psi. the cylinder walls are really thin, and if you breakit, its not like breaking a b18 from too much boost. that will usually just blow a hole in a piston. if you overboost a b20, it will probably blow out a whole cylinder.

 

Sheit! And sleeves are probably so expensive that I don't even want to know...

 

eh, i think you can get them, installed, for around 1000-1400. not too bad. still a good chunk of money though. and it would be stupid to do that and drop the stock internals back in.

 

LOL...If I sleeved it, I probably wouldn't be able to stop on thet:-D Anyhow I'm looking for a replacement D-block for now Ouch...
