Right now, I am trying to make a big decision. Build up the SR20DE or get a SR16VE. I like the turbo, but throttle resopnse of nomally aspirated engine is very important for me. I need your serious opinion here. If you were in my position, which engine would you choose? SR20DE has more low end torque than SR16VE, but less high end. If I get an SR20DE, I am planning to change cams (JWT S3 or similar) and get basic head work done.
However, SR16VE got excellent high end, but low end torque won't be much better than GA16DE. I am guessing the SR16VE engine is a lot like Honda's B16. I know a lot of SE-Rs with bolt on mods are killing Civic Si out there so SR16VE might be the same. I'm not into killing other cars or extreme power/speed, so I want whichever makes me happier. SR20DE will be cheaper, but but after doing the cams, etc SR16VE will be about the same price. More low end torque? or High end power? Believe me or not, it's a tough decision to make.
