ok heres where im at

just bought a ek coupe. its motor doesnt run. either the timing belt is off a bit or the piston rings are blown
either way im looking at an engine build for the d16

here is were i need your help!

i have 2k and want to spend it on the right build

ok i could get a B16 witch is a respectable start without a doubt but its going to be alot of work i will definatly look into running it n/a but i will build the motor.

second option is build the bottom end of my stock motor. new pistons new connecting rods. strong top end with new cam new vualvs new springs. get the cylinders honed and milled. then get a greddy, hks or apexi turbo kit. i could get 300hp out of it hopefully

i just cant decide!!! so i just want to know what you would do if you were me.

thanks for the help!!!

i would go d16turbo

just get a homemade turbo kit which would cost about 1200-1500

and you ready got enough info to make a good build

lastly a d16turbo is ten times sexier than a b16(when done right)

but thats just my opinion
