Default B Series Turbo Question

ok, i am wanting to run boost on my teg, and the way i see it is i have a couple different routes i can take...i have a stock LS Motor, and i have a B20 block, the block is in pretty bad shape so i was going to sleeve it anyway so im going to sleeve the block and im not sure if i should just go ahead and use the ls head, or is there a different head that i should be using. I want it to be a non vtec head

Why non vtec? As far as non vtec heads that are gonna fit on a b20 I'd say an LS head is the only option. Even then I've never heard of anyone doing it.

well i guess i could use a vtec head but i just didn't want to deal with all the crap that goes along with it, i dont have experince with it but i hear that when you mix vtec and turbo you can get some problems and i just dont want to have to put up with all that.

Boost is gonna be fun regardless if you have a vtec head or not.

Generally a vtec head is gonna flow better than a non vtec head. And you will get more power out of it. If you have the money go ahead and slap a vtec head on it. If not it's no big deal. I say if your gonna build your motor including block and head, might as well go for a vtec head.

BTW Wantboost: Your avatar is great

Do the VTEC head. The LS head may not be worth it. Listen to 93turbo16 and wantboost.

VTEC and boost is great, almost like the power band on a Suzuki 250r. Nothing than BAM hold on tight. But you are right boost is great no matter what.

I agree, boost+vtec=love Just don't half *** it and everything will be cool. Hence all the GSR's, Civic's, etc that have boosted vtec.
