You just like the type r example because the motors are noticably different in power ratings.

I mentioned the b18c5 because it's MUCH more similar to the b16b That we've been talking about...


Second, we were arguing about the b16a and b18c1 motors which put out identicle final power ratings with slightly different torque and rpm numbers.

Uh... NO we were arguing about a b16B... Which DOES have the same "final" (it's not final it's peak btw (they occur in different rpm points for each engine... BOTH lose power after that point.)) hp... the b16a has LESS than a GSR and LESS torque... making it not even worth comparing... if you think a GSR engine and a b16a are even MILDLY comparable then you're dumb... A GSR swapped civic would KILL a b16a swapped civic... Off the line and ALL the way through the rev range... the ONLY thing that would give the b16 a glimmer of respect at the end would be it's shorter tranny.... If the GSR had a b16 tranny it would be a SLAUGHTERING...


And, although the GSR motor does have a whoping 2tenths of a liter more, it was concluded that the motors are only slightly different so there is no reason to wet yourself over such a small ammount of displacement.

And by whom was this concluded???? You, and your vast pool of knowledge and experience???

Like I said... if you want a FAIR comparisson... then compare the ITR and the CTR... they are as close to identical in design as you could get... technically speaking the b16b has MORE technology and tweaking than the b18c5... but guess what... those "whopping 2 tenths" make them TOTALLY un-comparable... the b18c5 would BURN the b16B ANY day.. noone with a clue would even bother arguing otherwise.
