Why B20VTEC? for one, lays down more torque than any other b-series motor.. As far as dyno numbers, the car made 300whp/235tq at 8psi on day one it left the shop (still needed to break the motor in). The motor was fully race built from the ground up leaving almost nothing internally stock... I was running 16psi daily driven before I decided that I had enough with dumping money into the motor to keep it drivable. The car really shouldn't have been a daily car but thats the choice I made...which ended up costing more just to keep it running.. The car was prolly realistacly laying down somewhere between I'd say 450whp/355tq range if not more at 16psi... That motor setup is the only honda setup that I've riden in that I could say was actually FAST... car whipped your head back and you could not lean forward at all at full throttle... buddies always said "that cars not concidered fast, its a f*c*in rocket on wheels." haha... My goal for the car was to reach 550-600 whp outta it around 25-30psi which the motor prolly could have done, though I never got the chance to do the run... either way... it was definately a experiance.
