5-8lbs wouldnt hurt, just upgrade your valvetrain and don't rev it to 9k.

you do not need oil squirters to boost a b20 block. You can try and boost on the stock sleeves you will just need a real good tune. If you dont want to go the FI route, I would suggest getting some arp rod bolts, crome, and a good tune if you havent already. If you have done that then I suggest you start to build the block.
Intake manifold and adjustable cam gears would be a good addition.
A port/polish and 3 angle valve job by a good machine shop would be beneficial too.
What TB are you using? A bigger one would help.

No, there are 600whp hondas on factory ignition systems. The only thing that might net you is a "smoother" idle and a lot of problems with the POS MSD. Now you're just naming mythical ricer parts.

I have respect for the b20. I've always had a semi-soft spot in my heart for them.
I'd leave the Fd alone.

its not about b20 that im talking about, trust me i have respect for a properly built b20 but im talking about the kid. talking about sleeves being weak, thats one of the first things you do when building a motor or so i think.

That's not the least of it, the bottom end of B20s are held together with zip ties, nothing more.
If you wanna go heavy hp - whip out the aftermarket rods/pistons/bearings.
A B20 which isn't fully built in a civic is a problem waiting to happen.
Bare in mind that the cylinder walls aren't composite like the H22, I'm 99.9% sure they use the same metal cylinder walls as the LS, so I don't know why pple keep talking about that
.
It's the rods that blow out. It's meant for pulling ****, it's an SUV motor, it's not meant to see 9000 RPM, people just don't get that.

Rods can be a problem, however the sleeves also suck. They are monosleeve so any slight twist or movment by the cylinders and they crack. Normally this could be caused by detonation.

Kids, if you haven't caught on ... this kid is a troll.
2" of overbore on a B20? Yeah ... if B20 stood for a twenty-liter B series motor.
