dont bother with d17 it is slow and will require too much work to swap over, ur goin from single coil, to coil on plug, d16 or b18 is a much better choice

It's worth going with the B a D series build will only yield so much power unless you boost.... and thats probably gonna end up more expensive then a b18 swap... granted you'll have more power from the turbo but the swap will be cheaper and probably more guranteed to work even though it will have less HP
