can somebody please explain to us what a b16 motor is? im tired of arguing with my friend about it.

 

lolol ok

You might want to consider creating a few more threads about it with the same question being asked.
Like Jprommel said it's just the B series aka DOHC motor which has higher compression and more horsepower (160) then it's Dseries SOHC partner (129).

 

an overrated engine that people think is the **** when it's really not

 

It needs more torque but it's a pretty decent motor, especially when boosted, in my opinion. I love mine.
