Hi everybody! i want to put a CRV B20 engine into my EJ8. I know, I will get some difference against my current D16Y8, but how much? I also want turbo it, I've heard that B20 has a thin cylinder walls and needs to be sleeved or block guarded? how much boost can put on stock internals? is ebay turbo kit for 800$ good?

 

ur somewhat on the right direction.....sleeves are a plus...some ppl dont like to use block guards...me personally....im thinking of picking one up for my b20v im building. if ur planning on boost...build ur engine right...updrage oil and water pump. ARP rod bolts and head studs. Do not go with ebay turbo kit....its ok to get ebay intercooler and piping, but as for wastegate...BOV...turbo and other accesories i would recommend brand name. this is info i gather from researching. and as always....u will just need a well put together engine and a very good tune. (this is what i came to from reading) more ppl should drop by and give their opinion as well.

 

thanks, but if ebay kit comes with t3 t04 turbocharger? it is garret right?

 

Oh, another thing...its not about "how much boost" its based on power, diff. turbos give diff. power at the same psi amount....cylinder walls can only take so much....i believe ppl gotten between 300-350.

This info i picked up from reading, correct me if anything is incorrect.

 

well, i guess 300-350hp on stock internals it's enough for me a while...

 

im making 311 on my gsr and it makes it realllly fun as a daily. anything more might be pointless.

 

not exactly, it should have garrett inprinted on it. Garrett is good...not that i seen any immitations...but becareful with ebay.

 

yes, it will be daily your GSR is stock?

 

what else? i know only garret, turbonetics, mitsubishi. by the way, can i use turbo from toyota hilux 2.0 diesel?
