ok so i have done that searching stuff, and could not get a clear answer just wondering if i will be safe with a B20b with a t28 at 14psi with tuning?? If so how much power do you think it will make??

 

no rediculous power

 

yes but will the block handle it?? Also this is going to be my DD??

 

youll be ok just tune it...dont listen to all the bandwagon monkeys that say b20s suck for boost most of them havent ran one....

 

oha nd i would say somewere of a ballpark of 250hp just a guesse...

no ****.
sell the b20 for an ls and boost that. if it's your dd, it's kinda stupid to do a proven unreliable setup.

 

haven;t bought the motor yet. Plus with a b20 they are 500 bux on ebay with low mileage, aren't LS's more plus, aren't LS rods not that good??

 

we were just discussing this in another thread. ls short/longblocks can be found for about $2-400 if you look hard enough. ls' are all over the place so they arent hard to find. and there isnt anything wrong with them, especially for the price.

same exact rods as a b20 and i'd be surprised if you couldn't find an ls for the same price as a b20 on ebay

 

go to the junk yard i got my ls for $300

 

the other reason that i liked B20B was because it is 8.8:1 and the torque and hp are near each other as opposed to the LS

and an ls c/r is like 9.2:1.
If you plan on turboing an engine where the c/r is going to make much of a difference, a stock b20 is not a good choice.
Once boosted, a stock ls vs a stock b20 will have damn near the same numbers. And with the ls, you can safely turn the boost up more and make up for the small difference very easily.

 

ok so what kind of number could be expected with a B18B with a T28 at 14psi?? Any thoughts

thats a smallk turbo, but you should have no problems with 240whp and 210wtq depending on tuning.

 

yeah i'm probably gonna get s200 to compliment the tuning

thanks everbody

 

Back from the dead

So I got a 1999 crv and want more power for when I am on the mountain passes so I am wanting to achieve about 220 wheel torque at approx about 3500 rpms also basically what turbo would be good to achieve this it is my dd

Also can a b20 handle these figures and still be dd

 

So you're saying that in 6 years you haven't managed to figure this out? Sad.

 

Oh I am confident in what I want however I enjoy hearing people's opinions

 

Will it be a fun a street car? Hell yes, lots of low/midrange... but absolutely no top end.

Will you be shattering horsepower goals and flying by everything on the road ? No, a stock evo could roll right by you

 

I only want 220 torque

 

what kind of numbers on a t25 anyone know

 

are you like stuck on that dinker *** T28?

 

Build it and put it on a dyno.

 

Use a 50 or 57 trim and call it a da. this is the most responsive turbo for most all Bseries in stock trim.
Its been proven over and over.

The t28 is a tiny thing and yes, 14lbs is fine. My T3 super 60 made 256/243 on my B20 with a set of cams at 14lbs. It ran out of breath after that.
