The bottle is for babies :devil:

Boost that b16 :thup: stock with a GOOD TUNE can be very fun..

Spanking those "torque-monsters" with a little Honda Civic with the "torque-less wonder" = Priceless (ask Yell88CRXsi)

As for your CRVTEC build - LS/B20 crank + b18c1 block + b16 head :thup:
$0.02

Thank you kind sir. :)

If you plan to turbocharge the car at some point and continue to drive it on the street, my opinion is keep the engine at 1.6L of displacement.

Why the hell would he need to keep it at that displacement?

I din't say that he "needed" to keep it at that displacement. I only stated that if it were me that I would keep it a 1.6L.

The reason I would choose to keep the engine displacement low is the fact that it will produce enough torque for the street without overpowering the chassis. In my opinion high torque isn't needed in street driven Hondas.

Stroking the motor with such a short deck height is a bad idea. You would only be building a time bomb.
