Trying to start a nice N/A build on my b20, where should i start to make the most bang for my buck?? Bare with me, new to g2ic!
Are you working toward a certain power goal? What type of b20? (low or high compression) Whats your budget? We need a little bit more info bud.
For a mild budget build I suggest a 4-2-1 header, 2.5 exhaust, and a 3" intake pipe with Blox velocity stack/filter combo.
Taking it a step further you could add some cams, intake manifold, throttle body, chipped ecu with a dyno tune. Boom, with that you could make some killer numbers if get the right parts and a good tune… its all in the tune my friend. Hope that helps!
Don’t forget to upgrade your clutch. All the power in the world is useless if you’re clutch is just sitting there slipping and smoking.
stage 1. tdm hytech replica header, 3’’ intake, blox intake manifold, hondata intake manifold gasket, 2.5’’ full exhaust, 9lb flywheel and exedy stage 1 clutch, b16 transmission
stage 2. crower 403 cams with matching valve springs/retainers and adjustable cam gears
stage 3. rs machine high compression pistons
stage 4. fully ported and polished head then crower 404 cams
Thanks a bunch you guys! Sorry for this late reply, but I have what I believe to be a hi comp. b20b because its stamped in 2001. Correct me if I’m wrong. I want to at least get to 200hp, thank you for all of your inputs!
200whp will be hard. I’ve seen 160-170whp with bolt ons, mild work, and 403s combination. Along with 130-140 torque.
Still trying to justify a mild B20B NA myself because of those numbers.
200whp out of an NA B20 will be VERY expensive.
It can be attained fairly easily if you put a vtec head on with ITR (or better) cams.
i made 192 out of my na b20b recently. running a gsr head, i used cp high compression pistons, eagle rods, stock bearings, with a PLM header, skunk2 intake manifold, skunk2 70mm pro throttle body, tuned on hondata running on e85 so i was able to pull a ton of timing…

^^THIS! vtec head will be the easiest way to obtain 200whp. Ive seen many people reach that goal with a vtec head.
Once again, thanks for all the inputs! Kind of leaning towards a gsr swap now. I want high reliability as well, so I kind of dont want to deal with a ls v kit…
LSV, B20V, GS-R, B16… They can all be completely reliable. If they’re assembled correctly you have nothing to worry about.
With a 200whp power goal none of those, in stock form, will reach that goal.
A GSR with bolt ons will make a solid 180whp.
GSR as in 1.8 or 1.7? Just to clarify.
Touché.
B18C GS-R is what I meant hitting 180whp.
The B17 can be equally reliable, but when I read “GSR swap” my mind defaults to B18C 
To get 200hp will need high compression pistons, ported and polished head, crower 404’s, blox intake manifold port matched and a 68mm+ throttle body, not too much different than getting 200hp with a vtec head minus ported head and twice the price of nonvtec cams

A healthy 1.8 gsr will but good luck finding one that hasn’t been beat to crap
HMotors my friend. Their engines are typically in awesome condition.
My b20b is from hmo, and yes it came in awesome condition.
As did mine. Great company.
