Welp, you see, I don't have any dyno numbers. But if you have some to prove me wrong, game on.
The B16 has a short stroke to achieve an almost perfect R/S ratio to allow it to rev. The D16 has a longer stroke and smaller bore.
A longer stroke will typically give better torque. The B16 spins it's small torque all the way up to 8k, and has a wicked transmission to take advantage of that. This shows strong torque at the wheels.
In the end, stock to stock, the D16 is only down slightly from the almighty, "let me suck your d*ck" B16. Some good tuning and some bolt-ons bring you about even, maybe a little more. The challenge is making the d-series rev the same. Which isn't hard or expensive either.
I could go on for hours.

Ya the b16 does only have a lil more torque then the d16a6, but then everyone knows the engines aren''t made for torque.
