Go waaaaay back into the black hole and you'll find me. Hell, do any search for "f20b" and I'm likely to pop up somewhere. When I tell people I'm into everything, I mean it.

Merf was DEEP into hondas back in the day. But that F20B swap made him HATE hondas. Oh and I did ride in his car with that F20B set up, it was definitly sick.

Yeah it wasn't pretty. 14 months and $8,000+ later...and I enjoyed it for a whopping 3 months before it was totalled.

God damn your right, you and me are about the same. I spent a shit load to get this motor and went through hell getting it installed. After everything was said and done i had spent about 7g's and some change.

Only problem is having the turbo kit and me being stubborn, i want to put it on. But only if it can be done right. If anyone knows of any N/a parts that i can build this up with let me know. But thanks again to everyone.
how much was the f20b?

I paid the same as I would an H22. hondamotorsonline was out of OBD2 H22s, and I had already paid for one, so the dude said he has the eingine hear that noone had heard of but he assured me was a beast. He said it's rarity made it a $4,000 engine, but he'd let me take it for the $2,200 I had already paid (complete swap). I said sure after findin out that it was indeed a 200 hp engine...little did I know just how potent it actually was till it finally ran and I drove it.

Yeah, even now they run anywhere between 1500-4000 bucks depending on who you go through. It would be beaster to get a little CRX and drop one of these bad boys in with some ITBs and head work and dank exhaust it should be pushing around 225-235 all motor almost stock, and it would sound sick. Correct me if I'm wrong, but they are 200WHP stock right?

That is correct. The autos are actually de-tuned to 180 though, which I neevr understood. But the engine out of the SiR-t (200 bhp, 5-speed) is a beast.

Hey Merf, did you have a head gasket or pistons for your turbo kit? I am looking to get a head gasket or pistons to lower the compression. I am really not trying to get pistons right now because i dont have time to sleeve the block. Do you know of any good head gaskets or pistons (that would work with stock sleeves) that would be good for the turbo setup? and if so do you know where i can get them? Thanks

Nope. And chances are I would have blown it up in no time.
