Default B20 w/vtec

So what's the big deal with using the b20 block and say a 1.6-1.8 vtec head. I've heard some people talking about it but knowbody realy explains why they would choose this over a B18c1.

i believe it's also good for boost because of lower compression.

it doesn't "give boost" :slap:, it takes boost better than a b18c would.
