Default B20b Hybrid CRX EF8 Turbo

Hi guys im about to replace my block this weekend as i ran a bearing at 12psi on my b16a i picked up a b20b block and going to wack my b16a head on it.

Will be running
Running 440cc injectors
Tuned with Bre
Rev limit set at 7200

Now im just wondering what sort of boost figure i should look at the b16a ran reliably for a year at 12psi.
Would the same figure be acceptable for the b20b hybrid or can i go a little higer due to the lower compression

Your thoughts are appreciated

this is my mess atm

the b20 sleeves are way weaker. you may want to turn it down a little. it may hold 12 but 1 hiccup and it is over.

detonation is detonation just cause guys have forged pistons doesn't mean they will last longer under detonation as cast unless its very minor. Sleeved blocks the same way, crazy high cylinder pressure shocks will pretty much destroy anything u throw at them

Um td05-h turbo 38mm external wastegate,

The block will be bone stock with only a block guard and the head just has uprated valve springs

might start at 5psi and go from there

Depends who makes it, if they tuck it right on the oil pan you will be fine.
