I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

My D16 with Jackson Racing supercharger is stupid fun. I don't ahve any numbers but would guess a mid 14 quarter. I also get 40+ mpg.

jackson racing supercharger is probably out of my budget
i will probaly just get a small dsm turbo for now and run 8 or 9 psi. From what i have found out i can get enough power with that set up. Just out of curiousity what did your setup cost you?

I have a '91 Si and a '91 Dx. The Dx has a B16A
with A2 Cams
6lb flywheel
Exedy Stage 2 Clutch
S1 Trans With Limited Slip
Stock PR3 ECU
5Zigen Exhaust
Shitty Intake
and a new factory Cat.

The Si has a D16A6
with a full (in the fender) intake,
eBay Underdrive Pulley,
eBay Header,
eBay Fake Cat,
Stock Exhaust with Stock Si Muffler,
Royal Purple
eBay chip in PM6 ECU.

My Si pulls really hard at low end and would be suprisingly close to the B16. Once it revs out though it seems to drop off. The B16 starts pulling slightly harder than the Si but the higer she revs the harder she pulls. Rather than putting the money into a swap I would advise to put it into the D16. They're way fun and cheap too. I imagine if i put a Cam, Clutch, Flywheel, Full Exhaust, and a real tune on the D16 it would pull pretty close to the B16. Just my 2 cents.
