    Question b 16 manifold

    im seeing a lot of b16 manifold's on 3geez but my question is do they fit right on? what has to be done to make it fit? and what about the vacuum lines?

    I remember seeing a writeup, but I dont remember it helping all too much. Informative, but not enough for me to go out and do it myself lol

    Re: b 16 manifold

    excuse my ignorance but wouldn't the b18 head work with more flow seeing as it's for a bigger engine? or does it not fit at all? why does the b16 get such hype being for a .4 liter smaller motor?

    Re: b 16 manifold

    the amount of air a b16a sucks in at 8000rpm is probably equal to the b20 at its 6500 redline. the TB is bigger. it just looks the best. but you can use b16,b18 ones if you want i think.

    i didnt port match mine, but i did get a power increase, the torque band moved up into my driving range and im getting good gas milage and lots of mid to high end power now which is what i like.
