so you are asking if a tune for a 1.8l type-r engine will work for a 2.0l suv engine? And lets not forget this tune also lead to a blown motor already. I think you already know the answer to that.

And in my opinion boost is more reliable than a high compression NA setup.

I just dont know if i would want to turbo a stock motor, kinda worried about the sleeves but i could use my ITR crank and a block guard to hold the block up. Can the stock b20 valvetrain hold up to around 10psi?
please just search this forum, those questions have been answered countless times already.

I've seen stock B20s bored to 85mm for N/A builds. A stock 84mm block is just fine for 220whp on a N/A set-up.

Boost is better.

Find the answers to all your questions here: www.b20vtec.com and if you go with b20/vtec and you do it before I get mine done tell me how it goes, the particular build and everything.

sounds like you would want to do the b20 vtec....makes good power for what it is and a little more stable....a retune would be in order from your last set up. b20 turbo'd is fun but 8lbs is all I would run on stock internals... stock sleeves are way to thin. and a lot of tuning is needed for this. a good turbo'd set up on 8lbs is a easy 265whp
