Highlights of B16B 98 Spec R compared to B16A

In order to increase the power output by 15 hp, and the max RPM by 200RPM, the engine goes through many upgrades. It should be noted that the B18C Integra Type R's cylinder block is used for its endurance.

The translations for the numbered labels in the diagram are:
  1. Cylinder Head - Complete port & polish
  2. Exhaust Valve Spring - High-lift, dual-layered spring
  3. Sparkplug - High-heat-type #7 platinum plug
  4. Pistons - High-compression, low-friction, custom pistons
  5. Connecting Rod - High-output, high-durability, lightened, custom conrod
  6. Engine Stiffener - Aluminum die-cast, high-durability, one-piece type
  7. Crankshaft - Full-balancer, 8-weight, high-output, custom crankshaft
  8. Inlet Valves - Lightened inlet valves
  9. Inlet Valve Springs - High-lift, flat-surfaced, dual-layered spring
  10. Camshaft - Wide-angled, high-lift, high-durability camshaft
  11. Intake Manifold - High-RPM type.
