Been out of town, the engine is 1.6 sohc v-tec. With a 145,000 miles on engine, do you think it will hold up to this kit? Still runs good, burns no oil.

greddy is over priced and if you want low to mid power go with a high torque motor. simple as that. and if you want to keep the motor you have, supercharge. turbo's take a while to spool. supers are constant power, giving you more low end. but i really wouldn't advise doing high boost on factory internals on any honda. be careful.



EDIT: go with b18b1. it's got good low end from factory. and i wouldn't boost a vtec block without a low compression rebuild.
