Managed to source reliable insurance through Sky Insurance. So luckily the car is staying. Quick warning to anyone who is insured with Admiral/Elephant etc, check they`re willing to allow engine conversions. Could risk having your policy cancelled immediately!!!
Anyway after a long time contemplating, I decided to scrap the idea of a K conversion for now. Though it is arguably the best engine for accessible gains, couldn't bring myself or my bank balance to forking out the money. So... Stayed B series
... For now.. Aha
Obviously wasn't expecting a night and day difference between the b16 and 18; but the added torque makes the car so much more useable for spirited drives.
Car received a base map- Vtec now engages at 5k rpm, delivery feels far more linear though lacks the high cam kick of OEM feels far more refined. Launch control
And a shift light at 8.3k
Massive thanks to DNR/Endless Horizon for the work.
Next mod: A new Rad stay aha.
Sorry for the long post, got a bit carried away!
