thats not entirely true. There are some built d seriers motors out there, and they can be built just as much a any other motor, but its usually just easier to get a b or an h series motor to build up.

I wouldn't mees with a b16 i would go straight for the b18c because of the more stock power and tourqe, don't get me wrong b16 can be modded nicely but you will hit the "can't mod anymore" point on a b16 before you would a b18 power wise.

If you don't wanna do an engine swap right away then look into nitrous, its about $500 and it will add 55-75 horsepower.
