i want to do a b20 (crv engine) with turbo and swap out the b16a2. my question is what problems will i run into with this swap. what kind of boost is needed to run 12's in the quarter mile. will the tranny off the b16 work with it and will i need to acquire different axles, also where can i get one of these engines.

A lot if you don't do research first, start by using Honda-Tech Search

That depends on a lot of factors but a good ball park would be 9-12 psi

Yes it will work, no you won't need new axles. The shorter gearing won't let you stay in boost as long as say and LS tranny would but many people drive turbo'd setups with the Si tranny and have good results.
