Has anyone done a turbo, AWD CRV? Whether it be B20/VTEC or straight B20?

Yes, its been done before. B20 Vtec and turbo.. I saw it on a Super street mag couple years ago.. Also driven by a girl as well if memory serves me right..

Would the original B20 engine be a better candidate for a turbo due to its lower compression? Could the same be achieved with the later with thicker head gasket?

Just toying with the idea...

I think that was a FWD model...my dad had a 98 crv awd....i was thinking of doing something like that but i'd have to do a manual tranny swap and itll cost way too much for everything...

yes it can be done, however stock b20 sleeves are thin, and if you get a boost spike its possible to crack a sleeve, and depending on what VTEC head you use, i think you will actually drop compression due to the head cc

I have a 97' CRV and am gettin ready to install my turbo kit one of these next couple days. I have a friend who has a b20/VTEC hatch and it flies, I could only imagine the 2 of them together. But if the install was done wrong then its a timebomb.

I've had a B20/VTEC in my civic for about 3 yrs. now it still runs great. but if you are giong to put a VTEC head you might want to think about swaping out the main bearings to GSR's so i can handle the higher RPMs.(don't want to spin a bearing) I am now currently building another block for my CR-V which will be sleeved for turbo and will also have a VTEC head bolted on to it. By spring my AWD CR-V will be pushing @400 HP. good times

Do you think the Realtime 4WD will be able to handle that much power? Keep us updated.

SIR-nesta

do anyone know if the AWD system will work on a hatchback?

YAMAHAtrueracer

I think it was Honda Tuning magainze, (or maybe another Honda magazine). That put the CRV's Real Time 4-WD system in a integra. They had a big write up on it in that issue of the magazine, maybe search for the topic and check that article out to see if it'll fit. That'd be sick as **** if it did 2.

i was just thinking about this yesterday.Saw a crv on the road and was thinking has anyone put a type r in an awd crv that thing would probably jump of the line depite the weight

allmotormike99

I hope so if not I'm going to take out the real time slip disc set-up and weld everthing up to make it all-time 4wd. but i'll keep you all updated.

sweet crv....glad to see someone did it......

aznboi3644

I have the Honda Tuning Mad with me at home and all they did was take out all of the unnecessary pumps and clutches and welded it all together.

allmotormike99

save your self the money and just buy the head and replace the main bearings. If you were to put a type r engine in you V you would lose off the line everytime. because you would loose your lowend torque, not a good idea. I was using a b16 in my integra as a spare engine and i could really feel the loss of low end power.

According to the guy who welded diff so that his Integra (with CRV AWD) could be RWD, the axels can handle a whole lot of power.

the rear axles on a crv are like the thickness of my finger, i dont see that holding much power at all.

My buddy owns/built the Integra. So fun to ride in. Busting donuts in an Integra, awesome.

just throw a JRSC on whatever you got (FWD or AWD) and call it a day.
