You're better off with B20vtec
I am sure you can rebuild a reliable, fast B20 VTEC for 5 Gs
anyways, back to your question
please indicate where you want the power over the band?
this is pretty important choosing the size of turbo |
what are you going on about?
a b20 isnt good for boost, but a b20vtec is? where is your logic there? vtec heads dont allow you to magically rev a motor farther up the rev range to make it any more safer.
to the OP: B20's will take boost just fine. Make sure whoever tunes it does a good job and is knows their limit and the limit of the motor and you will be fine.
We had a couple of B20 bottom ends stock blocks take over 300whp without issue and they were just fine for daily driving so im not entirely sure what Y2K is talking about.
If you dont want to tear the bottom end down for any upgrades, throw in a set of ARP studs with a new OEM head gasket (stay away from cometic, they leak) torque those suckers down, install your turbo kit and off to pounding the pavement you go.
If you want a entry level setup, and if you dont necesarily want to buy a "kit" PM me, i have a ram horn manifold, T3/T4 turbo, 38mm tial, intercooler, charge pipes, downpipe, bov and injectors that came out of crx that made solid power with the setup. if you have a different chassis, most of the stuff will work, just have to rearrange some of the charge pipes and intercooler mounts.
good luck with your project.
