i used to have a VX.....
Also, a LS (b18a or b18b) has more potencial then a B16a hands down.
As they say, there is no replacement for displacement....
Seems you went the cheap route with a 1.6Liter.....
Also what Rpm does that b16a make 116ft lbs of torque... prolly way above 6k...
Just face it, the B16a is a torqueless motor and you gotta rev the piss out of it to make any kinda power.... Thats why more and more people are going the LS,GSR and ITR route because you get more displacement and more torque... And as you said whoopy 5 extra ft lbs... well its is a extra 5 ft lbs.. but those extra 5 ft lbs are made way below the rpm range of where your b16a starts to make any kinda power witch hense you would be choking on my smoke....
jason hunt uses a B18b1 bottom end, why? cause displacement
Kenny tran uses a b18 bottom end, why cause obvisously it makes them go faster...
gardella uses a B18 bottom end
Sav uses a b18 bottom end
Boosted3g from this here website uses a B18b1 bottom end (will be making 600+
wheelhorsepower)
Now you support facts to why a 1.6Liter b16a is better
