h: so how would the B20 hold up with about 4-6 psi totally stock internally? and would the B20 out of a CRV be easy to swap into the teg?

Like i said before, it would be fine. It's just like putting an LS motor into an integra. Use the LS harness, ECU, intake manifold, clutch, flywheel, tranny, mounts. It's the same exact motor externally, except for the intake manifold.

I have a P8R head sitting in my garage. And yes, the B20Z is better, or the 99-00 B20Z...higher compression, more power. As for the OBD2 motor, you'd be fine putting it into your car. Just use your OBD1 distributor and ECU.

You'll run 4-6 psi for a month, then you'll want more and more and more and more..... All forged... 25 psi! 450 whp....

so would i be safe running 4-6 psi on the B20 daily with some tuning?

I am running 8 psi daily driven on my GSR motor with 138k miles with little to no downtime. I am failing to see your point.
