From what I seem to measure on my dyno sessions, yes, generally about 20 to 30% more compared to D's... but it is not a fair comparison perhaps.

we are finally about finished with the D2B kits and the initial run of 5 kits should be ready to ship in the next week or two.
A few pics of some of the parts:

Here's a few more mock up pics with the oil pan on and one of the drivers side mount.

Here's a much nicer pic of the kit:

We are also working on a lower cost "standard" kit that will allow the use of a 2 or 3 bolt post mount and other chassis fitments.

Nice, does the mount for the intermediate shaft bolt on to the stock block or do you need to drill and tap holes in it?

The D16a9 /D16z5 allready has those holes afaik.And maybe some other bottem ends too.The other ones need to have that drilled or adapted.I'm not sure but you might need a little spacing block .
All in all this swap can be done by yourself pretty easy.
Would be nice to just put a B18c transmission with Lsd onto our engines and have the same advantages as the B-series engines have :lol:

Guys i copy and pasted this from Onecamonly from Speedfactory themself like i did with the previous post on here.
I do not make this ,Speedfactory does. ;)
I think the Hrv transmission could work not sure though.But i don't think you wanna waist money on a Hrv transmission when you could have a shorter and better Type-r transmission with lsd allready in it.
