Aryt boys. Got a b20 ek9 and im seriously considering boost. Iv done a bit of research and still unsure whether i should do it? Just dont want it blowing. This is my engine spec

Engine:
DnrTuned built and mapped B20*B20Z1 Bottom End*Oem Polished and Balanced crankAcl bearingsDnr vtec conversion partsArp head studs.New Cam Belt,Oil pump, seals and Gaskets Standard B16B Head with new stem sealsRS Machine 84mm 11.7:1 High Compression PistonsCompetition Stage 2 Carbon Kevlar ClutchSpoon 4-2-1 ManifoldSpoon B-pipeSpoon N1 Replica Muffler .2.5 inch system with oem cat Hondata S300 EcuSkunk2 Pro Series intake manifold bored out to 70mmSkunk2 68mm throttle bodyItg DC2 Carbon Fibre Airbox with Cold Air feedItg Foam Air Filter*

Is it too high compression for boost? I only want around 280-300whp. Running 222hp/fly at the moment. Il be getting a standard go autoworks turbo kit if i do. Can anyone shed any light?
Thanks
 
You could run low boost but tbh you would be better off getting a b18c4 and boosting that in stock form
 
Thanks for reply mate. Tbh i really want to keep engine as its mint and built well. What if i bolted turbo and ran at around 1bar boost? Work would be done by endless. So shouldnt have problems there as they built engine and are very good.

Click to expand...

I would contact Endless and see what they suggest
 
standard rods? b20 rods are very weak.. if you are seriously considering boosting your b20 .. drop the compression and get quality H or I beam rods.
 
Sell me the B20 and get yourself a B18C4 which would be far more suited :)

BTW I'm serious and local to you!
