i heard a rumor that with the b20 block because they are a siamese cylinder engine that under high boost/high compression they have a tendincy to have rings go out rather fast...can anyone confirm this?

Re: crvtec question
talk to MP5 on here, he runs a boosted b20 eg..
I'm sure he hasn't seen this thread yet, he would of posted in it. He knows his way around boosting the b20.

Re: crvtec question
From what I have heard when boosting a B20 its in the best intrest of the builder to resleeve the B20 if running over 12lbs.
There is a local shop here that I believe they have a boosted B20VTEC with around 600HP or so. Just goes to show the potential.
