USDMMARK

there both gonna be fine, but i want a b20, cuz i want a two liter yo, i don't think a which is better question will get awnsered here, but ill say ive seen both, the b20 will be cheaper, the z has 140 hp about 128 to the wheels now bolt on some boost and your talking, the skys the limit when you have cash, if your poor like me youll stick to sohc's

i've had a turbo b20........the torque is amazing.........however it blew in one month, stock honda motors and me don't have any luck, the stock pistons suck, and b20 sleeves suck.........however now i'm fully building a motor, was gonna be the b20 but decided to go with the b18c1.......it's gonna get 84mm sleeves so it's gonna be a 2.0.......i'd do the c1 just cause you have squirters, if you get the longblock, or swap you already have the vtec head, just a better decision, don't get me wrong my b20 was cool, but decided to go with factory vtec block

good call either way man, hwo much boost were you running on your b20?
i want a 2.0 but want minamal boost due to a daily driver, and i don't feeel like messing with much with her, so i was hoping 6lbs but i don't care cuz ill never have money and ill always be stuck with my little SOHC

*the caps make my sohc seem bigger*

my b20 ran 14.20 @ 104 with a crappy 2.6 60ft on 6lbs, then i turned the boost up to 10psi and on the way to the track i played around with a gt2 porche and it develped a tick wich was later found out to be a dead cylinder, so on like 3 1/2 cylinders it put down a 12.93 at 105 on 24.5's
