Yes, you have 45hp on me...and only 9ft lbs of torque
youre famous quote of the day "hp doesnt win races...torque does"
I actually have run my y8 against a friends b16...I cant say that I was too impressed. Of course he came out on top, but it wasnt blazing speed from my vantage point.

Dont get me wrong, Im not against the b16 at all. I like the "torqueless wonder"
Im merely playing the antagonist of both sides (watch, in a few posts I'll jump on the D's)



You didnt answer my question. If the JDM B18C's extra 8hp makes it vastly superior to an almost identical motor of 8 less hp - then why on earth would you waste money building a motor that is obviously inferior (by the standard you yourself established) to another????
