i didn't think you could still get the stroker kit, i might be wrong.

h22 is a good engine i know as my mate has an ATR

imo put a b18 in

few mates & fellow ek owners love it!

cool wud the stroker get the same amount of power a b18 wud?

b20 it

i'd not heard of a b20 before this post but found good info on them at: B20/VTEC Build up Guide - Honda, Acura Tech Website, tutorials, tuning and HOW-TO's. Drag racing, street racing, road racing - C-speedracing.com

hope this helps

Work around the B16B, there's more to a car than power

cheers for the comments guys still duno what 2 do av seen a b20 block with a b16b head on it for £550

b20 will give you a hell of a lot more torque and will transform the car , lad near me has a b20 done and his car is much faster than dc2's !!

 

[gw ek9]

do u know the guy?did he do it himself and what power did he make?

b18 mate, easily tranfered across into your car, with a beneficial upgrade compared with the b16b

B20's arent realiable enough for me. Out of the two I would go for the H22, but thats because its the only other choice.

With the cost and work involved, maybe start considering the B18 and K20.

Selling the B16b and buying the B18 could work out the cheapest option.
Also if you are confident in swapping the internals yourself, give it a go. I think Funky Power may still stock them.

Agree with the power comment by steven also
however, when you get to use to the car, the time for b18 will be best option

 

[gw ek9]

cool guys had a look on fp web site they still sell the stroker kit!wud the pistons from the stroker kit fit in or wud the block need bored out?and wud it make alot more power than a standard ek9??

do everything you want to do the car apart from the engine once thats all done and if your still not satisfied b18 her up
