teh b20 and b18b heads are the exact same, you just have to use the b18b intake manifold and ecu.


original poster: you never differentiated between b18b or b18c heads
Actually, its 12 more torque stock (going by the 133 of the B20B and 121 of the B18A1)... But adding a more performance oriented intake manifold and head on there will increase that number, if only a little.. Plus the B18 header which flows better (which i also hear u have to use on the B20 to work)... I dont know if its waay too much, but Ive def heard more than one instance of the axles on this type of setup snapping... But either way, he will still have wheel hop (I realize I said spin before, but I mean hop since wheel spin can be controlled with launch technique) without serious suspension mods...
