if u have money y not try out a 3.0l out of the mazda6 or the 2.3 turbo mazdaspeed6. honda guys have realized their motors are torqueless and hence the ls vtec and b20 block b16 head to try to find ways to extract more horsepower. these being better than a type R swap for over all horsepower, torque...
