i need help.. idk witch will better set up. my goal is trying to reach 300hp to the wheel as daily driver.. i will boost later on. but i heard that b20v has better torque the a ls-v i need help. withc will be better set up and how much hp with i get out of a stock ls-v and a stock b20vtec i will be semi building the motor.. i will like to know from experience any help will be greatfull..

 

it depends on what your definition of "semi-building" is. i've seen stock bottom end b16's make over 500whp and stay together for 2 race seasons and the only reason it was torn down was to be built to make more power. It now makes 680whp.

The b20 has weaker sleeves that are more prone to cracking. at 300whp you should be ok with them though. Just for security and since your goal is pretty reasonable i would go with the ls/vtec.

The power you will see "stock" may we say out of each depends on what setup you use, whether its a LS block( or b20 block) with GSR head or b16 head, or even ITR head.

 

ok let me make sure i am reading this right. did you say " i am trying to reach 300 hp as a daily driver" then "I will boost later" then "i will be semi building".

well obviously we all know neither motor stock makes 300 hp so it looks like you are saying you want 300 without boost, so what are your plans to get to the 300 hp, and are we talking about having ac and all that.

 

yeah reading it again i get that impression too. i just gave him the benefit of the doubt that it's 300hp after boost.

 

ha ha thats what i was thinking too. saying in my head " dam if he is gonna have a dd with 300 hp with no boost i wanna know that set up, especially on that motor"

 

no that 300hp with boost... no idc about ac or anything.. what i mean semi build is new piston rods, cams, etc.. and 10pounds of boost.. do you thinnk with a ls-vtec i can reach 300 to the wheels

 

just buy a GSR and boost it, you will reach 300+ no problem. thats actually what im doing at the moment
