Default I'm new to the Honda world and just want to learn from knowledgable people

Just built a b20b with a ctr vtec head was curious if I should sleeve my current block and boost it that way or boost it with a b18 block , which will gain me more power

Honda-Tech has many many threads and a Forced Induction FAQ stickied at the top of the Forced Induction section to help answer your questions.
Unfortunately coming on here and asking vague questions without knowing or explaining A) Your goals B) Detail about the current setup or C) Problems experienced will not get you any answers.

> B20 blocks are not liked for boost regardless whether they receive aftermarket sleeves or not - the basic siamesed architecture reduces their strength compared to the B16 and B18 families.
> Sleeving a block won't make the setup make more power, it merely enables you to make more power reliably without experiencing failure.
>>> We need to know what you plan on doing with the car and what your goal is (either power output or some sort of performance goal)

Well I'm looking to build a 350 hp setup that can be daily driven , but I appreciate knowing the b20 isn't the ideal way of doing it

There is no need for multiple threads in different sections. Your other thread is in a more appropriate board, so I will lock this one.
