ls-t for sure. the sleeves of the b20 are just too thin in my opinion. i'm afraid they'll just crap out when under alot of pressure.

To those that say the walls of the B20 are weak and shouldn't be boosted:
Have you guys had a B20 with boost before? Or is this HT heresay? I was told Boosting a B20 can be reliable, depending on the tune. Can anyone who has owned B20 with boost comment on this?

I will say that it is all about who tunes the thing, That the same with people talking ish about how much psi and tpyers can only boost 7 psi and so fourth and so on. Trust me from experience if you get a good tune the ish will be just as reliable as anything else dont listen all the ra ra .
