i currently have a turbo b20 non-vtec and just wanted to know weither i should build the motor with sleeves/pistons/and rods then add a vtec head off a b16a1 or just build the whole b16a1 for boost ... iv seen some great numbers off both and this has to be a reliable daily driver/racer for me ...i also plan on getting the whole b16a long block this winter so ill have everthing i need to do the conversion or b16a build up .... thanks for your help

 

Since you already have the B20 block i would go ahead and do the frankinstien.
More torque. I think frankinstiens can br just as realiable as b18c or b16 is every thing is done right. just my thought

 

build the b20 up for vtec and boost that is what i am eventually gonna do trust me dude u will love the low end torque and the top end revs mmmmmm and add boost yeah it will be tight......

 

I have a fully built CR/VTEC . . . unfortunately it has been waiting for ever for me to find some money to get the turbo parts. Plus getting into an accident, then right after getting your car stolen doesnt help much

The B20 has weak factory sleeves. I would get the block sleeved. Put good rods and pistons in it and boost the hell out of it.
