Yep and here it is: You can drift and road race with an Rb20. Lots of my friends back in CA drift with RBs. They produce much more torque with basic bolt ons. I dont see why you dont think they are ideal for drifting.

the rb25 is going to create the same powerband as the rb20... with minor differences between the two.
the main thing is that the 25 is larger.
no replacement for displacement.
the motor doesnt weight a noticable amount more than the ka or sr
the only thing i have against the rb25 is the lack of a timing chain. doesnt matter, its still a great motor.
and 6 cylinders naturally will be able to contain more power than 4. because of 6 rods, 6 pistons... you get the point.

so a 2 liter 6 cylinder could hold more power than an equal 2 liter 4 cylinder, however, theres tons of other things to compare, such as build quality. but not oem vs oem.
full out build vs full out build. the 6 would be able to handle more than the 4.

honestly im not going to go rb because i would want a 25 or 26.
so if my ship comes in ill get a 25 or 26 but for now, sr20.

Who ever said that have no knowledge of physics and chemistry

Since everyone name their own engine, I will do the same.
I will get a 1.5 V6 civic engine. In 1987, they make well over 900hp.
With the 93 octane we get under (R+M)/2 rating, you should able to get 600hp or more.

How about a LS1. They almost weigh as much as the ka and it's a v8. You have high potiential hp but at the same time, it's a lot of work and customization.

2.4 liters

5.7 liters

talk about potential

and the ls1 weighs less than the ka

LS1 is still an expensive motor to buy. Just go RB25. Hinson Racing has a kit for it but you need lots of $$$.

I'd say LS-VTEC for the tourque. I think you could drift a b-series.
