Honda B16A2.
Turbo Mini Forums

Hello.

After a new engine.

I would prefer a B16A2, but will accept a A1.

Cheap as possable, with as little miles as possable :)

Ta.

Ive got an A1 wrapped up at my house, but your not having it

A cd from the band A1 i bet.

What car was this one out of.

Bud wont split with his daily driver im sure.

Back once again like a renegade master

a1 was in the earlier civics, crx's etc, the a2 came in a bit later possibly with the j plate and onwards civics

I cant remember what the difference is but they have a few more bananas

was it the vvc that was differant?

Back once again like a renegade master

not really, aparently theres a slight difference in cam profiles, ecu system, inlet manifold, and compression ratio
its vtec on hondas
vvc on k series
vvt on renaults and toyotas
(but all essentially the same)

Searching is all you need on TurboMinis

I have looked at the D-Series enignes, but prefure a B16 :)

d-series has alot more torque and respond better to turboing if that is the plan :)

But the conrods aren't as stong.

So would need a rebuild, just to swap them over. And most D16 engines put out around 120bhp, and for the cost a Hybrid conversion, I'd might aswell go A-Series :)

But I don't want to go A-Series.

Main bearing caps that actualy fit the block you sold me!!

main difference between the a1 engine and a2 is the ecu. they are obd0? and the a2 are obd1. means a different dizzy, lambda and a few other things, oh and the extra 10 nanas
