A stock bottom end B20? You'll have lots of torque but you'll hate yourself on the highway, and b20s aren't ideal for revving so the B16 tranny isn't really fitted to that motor, especially if we're talking about a stock head.

it deffinatley wouldnt be a highway driver but i figured with a nice built bottem end and some internals built for the supercharger mated with the b16 tranny it would be pretty ballsey

stock b20 head? Yes, it would have a lot of torque but most honda guys (me included) prefer the massive hp potential of a turbo over the instant boost of a supercharger. As far as the B16 tranny goes, if you're not on the highway the shorter the gears the better as long as you don't get into 5th in the quarter, then you have to mess with slick size and other things to make sure it's going as fast as it possibly can. But that is a whole other issue.
