IMO b20v's are monsters for a N/A builds, not for turbos.

x2. I use 2 say b20's suck :blah: n then my friend got 1 n i was like :jawdrop: Yeah i like b20's now. They r torquey. Never under estimate a b series motor.


I agree with you totally, they are monsters I drove a 260hp built N/A b20v. I was scared to even jump on it, but at the same time they are known to jump timing which is a major headache. My opinion is to not put a motor together and then turbo it, but instead to just get a B18c1 and turbo that and still rape everything on the street. Plus too much torque on the street isn't really too fun when you are spinning through your first three gears.

I keep telling my friend 2 slap a gsr head on his b20 but i think he wants 2 turbo it. N yeah i would hate spinning through my 1st 3 gears.

I doubt you will be making crazy numbers like that because I can't and don't even want to think about how much it would cost to build it. In the end though, it is all about what Series motor you prefer.
