Hi my name is Killian and im from Maryland. I have been tuning V8s for quite some time, i have a 2002 chevy avalanche with an STS turbo kit, and a custom flowmaster 40 exhaust (lots of other little things too). I really want to get a Honda Civic. I can't however decide on what year/model/engine. I like 1995s-1998-s even though 95 is a dif gen. I don't really know a ton about honda engines but i have been reading import tuner, and turbo magazine for years. From what i understand a B16 would be ideal however a d16z6 is pretty available. i dont know how much i want to swap an engine just to turn around and turbo it since that is my goal. Is d16 turbo a possibility or is a b16 swap better then a possible turbo down the road. If someone could just let me know my options it would be greatly appreciated.

 

D16 is a great little engine to boost. Check out TurboD16.com for more info then anything. The B16 is great to boost too, but it will cost more. With the B16 you can have more power at lower PSI and shorter gearing, thats about it.
