    reliable high comp b20???

    yeh ite cheers m8! i dno whether to build a b20 or to build a b18c! would there be much differences in performance compared to a fully build b20 nd a fully built b18c? b18c would probly be much cheaper and has no problems with high reving and still being reliable!
