anybody ever boosted a b20?
im sure its been done hundreds of times. but just curious what kind of results with a boosted b20. not b20vtec. also how many psi could stock sleeves on b20 handle. curious cause everyone say they are weak sleeves?
I had a bone stock b20b jdm version with less then 10,000 miles w/7 psi , 280 injector, and a fmu and stock ecu, with the fpsi at 80. and it was strong as hell . went to palmdale and ran a 13.6 with no tuning ... i loved it... i first turbo setup and the next day some one lacked my **** .....
but ya b20 turbos are hella fun !!!!!!!!!!!!

I had my b20vtec boostin around 10-12psi. Never knocked. (I logged a lot in the AEM ems). Was running strong for my t3/t4 (12.6@115mph)@10-12psi. But when i removed the head (spun a rod bearing), i saw all the sleeve cracked. They were cracked where they join on the other cylinder. The car was still running fine and never overheated...
So becareful with b20 sleeves.

i am also running a b20 turbo with a t3/to4e setup. they are strong motors, but like anyone will tell you tuning is the key. i made 246.6hp 248.1tq

combined with the fact that it was a stock block with a relatively mild tune.. ive seen people have to tune the **** out of a d to get high numbers, not to mention dohc heads flow better to begin with

TRUE but i meant with the price of the swap and the turbo goodies the d could keep up, for reference my friend had a boosted b20 on 8psi in an ek hatch, i had a boosted y8 in an ek coupe and i pulled him every time, but both of our cars were street tuned by the butt dyno. (he blew his motor long before i blew mine)

Im currently running 15psi on my stock B20 equipped CRX with turboedit. It pulls like a beast. The best Ive ran in it is a 13.1@113 with street tires @ 14psi with a 2.35 60ft still spinning in second. Its a great setup n I love it, top end is siiiiiick. PM if you have any questions.

i ran my b20 at 9 psi with the hack then with uberdata for months. beat the hell out of it. it needed a timing belt (chip in the old one) so i just put a new LS in it
im just that lazy

i had my stock b20/vtec boosted and that **** was strong as hell. dont have any numbers but i can tell you that switching from a boosted D to a boosted B was the best decision i ever made.
.....until i overboosted (15-16psi
) and cracked ringlands on my #3. sleeves were cool. replaced the piston put it back together but i sold all my turbo **** and im all motor now.
....i suck
