Well, its looking like im going to be rebuilding shortly here. My b16g is about 3 months old, maybe 4, i forget. Question is. Should i sell the b16g and pick up a 20g or 50 trim. This is basically a street car, and maybe a few drags in the summer time. I have one friend with a 50 trim right now, and i love it, its a beast, but im not quite sure on what to get. Any thoughts you might have, let me hear them.
 
Depends on how much $ you want to spend. I say go bigger than the 16G, especially since you love you buddies setup. Just remember that you need all those supporting mods. I personally would never go any smaller than the turbo I have.
 
By rebuilding do you mean aftermarket pistons/rods/etc? If so, it would be a shame to have a strong engine like that with a 16g. I say go big, but what do I know... I've just got a stroker w/ a 60-1 :rolleyes: :thumb:
 
If you get a 50 trim or 20G then you will need some mods to keep them alive and that can get expensive. If you just want a nice street terror and a decent car at the track then stick with a 16G and some 550's and just tune the heck out of it. It will most likely get you were you need. I kinda get tired of all this 50 trim crap. It seesm that as soon ans any DSM is bought these days the first thing that goes on is a 50 trim.
