I wouldn't imagine you would blow things up, but a tune would be good. Some head work might be worth looking into as well with the increase in displacement.

so since funds are tight, I take it that you won't even tune your car if you make a b20 vtec

Save the money until you can afford the tune. If not you will probally do some damage. Any detonation with a B20 and you in trouble, that is the main reasons the sleeves fail on B20 motors.
