    well ya take a b20b block, then slap on a vtec b18c5 head, b18 trans, and add about 16psi on ITR pistons and rods. the one piece b20b sleeves at 84mm can handle a good amount of boost, adn this conbo will piss all over any type r out there

    The fastest engine would be the one with the highest top speed, via peak horsepower. The one with the best acceleration would be the one that gets up to speed the quickest, via low end torque. Derivatives!! Take a physics class or something! :lol
