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

I've heard the same. Torqueless like the B16a.

Actually the B16B isn't all that bad. Has potentional, but it doesn't pull hard until about 3rd gear.

CTR is great, but ITR is better...the only thing the b16 lacks is torque...

If you don't mind having the engine revved to 5k when your going 65 on the freeway, then go with the ctr :haha:
