H22 may give more HP and less torque... So maybe it'll be easier to reach 200 HP with a H22 but your acceleration will be above under de B18....Last thing for you, I don't think a B18 is the right engine to get a turbo kit... Depending on the size...[/quote]

I have actually left it off for the past week. I dont think I am going to put it back on. To me, I just feel it gets way to hot in there, especially with the cover on. I think I am going to mod my hood, so I can get more airflow through the engine bay. Any thoughts?

just take the plug wires off, breather hose off, throttle cabe off and unbolt it... idk if thats a throttle cable or not, it has something to do with that tho, cause i forgot to put it back onto my vc and when i started my car, my rpm's jacked all the way up lol

If we are talking about y7's and y8's, the throttle body cable bracket would have to be removed from the y7 VC (one 10mm bolt). Y8's don't have that bracket.
You need to remove the spark plug wires, take off the breather hose (top left corner when standing in front of the car, take off the ground wire (bottom right corner), and then remove the 5 bolts.
Also, when reinstalling everything, check the valve cover gasket for cracks etc, also I would use some Honda-bond around where the dizzy is and where the cam gear is to further prevent leaks. Also, I believe the valve cover bolts should only be torqued to 84 in./lb.
I picked up a valve cover gasket set from Napa for like $20, came with gasket, spark plug seals, and the bolt boots. You are better off just picking up a new gasket if you ask me... you might as wel replace it while you have it off and not be stuck without a car if yours does need to be replaced and you don't have one. The liquid gasket was only a few bucks too. And you're right about the torque 7 ft lbs/84 in lbs
