Lets put it in easy terms, if you get your D to make 170 crank hp (my stock hp rating) then the D is going to be working much harder than my motor will be to make the extra power - thus making it less reliable.
If thats not true, then i should swap in my old POS d16 and junk my B16

no a b16 is just more EFFICIENT at making power with 1.6ltr of displacement, more effiecient cause it has a higher compression and a better flowing head/cam. if my engine is making 170hp its burning the same amount of fuel as a b16 making 170hp. ALSO like i already said and some on this site have learned, a rebuilt motor with race ready forged internals is going to be more reliable than some engine from some car with some unkown amount of miles on it and unknown care history.
Once again i've proved you wrong, so stop repeating this argument.
