b20/v-t would be nice if the block was sleeved then it would run great...cylinder walls too thin

I'd either go with a nice b20 boosted setup, or an LS boost setups. Both motors are good with boost, I don't know about the vtec add in, I'd probably leave then vtec out if you wanna go boost. Also, are you planning on building these motors at all?

yea i plan on building the engine like i was goin to go all motor so it can with stand the boost, im still new to what parts i need to get and all that stuff, just be awsome to learn everything and at the end feel good for what i built. At first i was goin to go LS supercharged to be different but i totally like turbos sounds amazing.

umm any b-series engine would honestly do the trick in a DA but just so you know vtec and turbo (not a great mix) if your starting from scratch i would go with the b-20 non-vtec and boost it youll be walking cars all day

b20/ls boost would be prime!

forged pistons/rods, ecu(to tune), injectors, fuel rail, maybe better axles and prob a full out gasket/belts/tune up change etc

fuck vtec if you are gonna boost. youll just be spinning tires like mad

make sure your suspension and tires are in good shape before doing anything crazy. stabilize the car and then build
