i have a b20b that replaced my blown ls and the torque is nice but in lacking power that i had in the ls. anybody know ways to gain the power back with the b2o? i did some searching and the b20b has about 125hp and 133 or so torque but the ls has 147hp with 127 torque. seems to me the 6 less torque wouldnt make up for the 22hp loss.
thanks for any advice or feedback

what are the mods so far?
plans?
budget?
nitrous wouldnt hurt lol

well that about sums up what i was gonna say.

 

ya in the future but i need to do some research on that setup i keep hearin about b20's are the weeker block and issues with the valve and or piston clearance. and no nitrous lol maybe built boost? 8.8 compression sounds promising...

 

if ur gonna boost it id get the ls block back... b20 suck at taking boost.. thin stock sleeves.. and nitrous is gay.. just my 2 cents.. only babys take bottels.

 

Do you still have the LS motor? If so, put the Intake manifold on the B20, and put the LS Camshafts in the B20 head. Swapping the B20 cams out for some LS ones picks up the mid-top end power a little bit.

 

B20's can handle a little over 200 whp on stock internals if tuned very good. Ive seen guys putting down 230+ on B20's, only internal upgrades on those guys' motors were block guards and aftermarket rod bolts. Check out this thread dedicated to Boosted B20's.vvvvvv

Very wrong buddy. You should check out the thread I posted as well. B20's love boost, stock internals or built.

im just saying from MY expericne what i think of them i seen many b20 turbos last a lot longer then ls.. but thats jsut my opinion i would boost a ls over b20 any day..

 

ya i have the ls still and i was gunna swap the head so that i might get back some of that power back. thanks for the posts guys im gunna go boost after i buy my extra ls block so if the b20 goes ill have a back up and i would of gotten my fun outa the b20 lol
