if i can get a h22a for a good price do u think that i should just get cams and header or would it be ok to deck out the motor and get a turbo for it or is that to much power for the front end of the car

call the junkyards and find a B21A1 head. slap that sucker on your B20A5 block and your cr should me somewhere around 8.86:1. then you'll be able to boost atleast 10-12lbs on your stock bootm end. i personally don't like boost. so i'd go with B16A pistons in the B20A5 block among other things. bump the cr up to 11.2:1. and get it tune.
