89 Hatch < B20b A Good Thing

[Kolumbo69]

i was just wondering besides the intake and the need of the tranny is the b20 worth it. Because of the weak cylinder walls i cant turbo it rite away because i dont have the 2200 canadian to send it to aebs to get iron sleeves put in it. So should i get the b20z with i think 9:6:1 compression or something like that and rebuild the internals for a na setup which would easly get over 200hp and be less costly because i wouldn't have to repack the turbo all the time. What do you guys think?

What are you talking about weak walls. You can turbo it, not 20psi, but a normal daily driven turbo is not a problem for the B20. In a 4g hatch you may not even care to turbo it, they are quick as hell N/A B20 with a good tranny.
