Rep Power: 21 | I would really suggest putting on a turbo/supercharger especially since you already have an LSD trans.. you'll be able to put the power to the ground. Even with a B20 you're not going to put out over 160 ft lbs torque to the flywheel, and the only way you're going to get any kind of real low end power is with boost. Put a Jackson/Vortech charger or a turbo kit and you'll make tons more power than any built block, and you will spend less money in the long run. |

Rep Power: 21 | Yeah I'm not saying you're wrong by any means.. if he is staying N/A your post was right on I just had the feeling he was looking for more than what that could give him. N/A the best low end power is to make a crv/vtec like you said.. |

| Senior Member | ya i love my motor and all the b16 has a bulit bottom end... still cant change what it is tho... still a b16... i would like to stay n/a becuase of very high compersion.. i would live to go CrVtec but i would like to rip apart my freshy built motor and make a new motor out of something that does damn good for a built b16 and get something in the end thats a lil better then i had... and i was looking at a vertech super charger kit... the would be a fix for my TQ problem.... |
