i have had some replies to the topic of a crvtec. ive been told its not worth the time and effort unless looking in excess of 300whp. now i would like your best based opion on what type of hybrid to go with. my car is a 91 crx hf. im already pushing 220whp but im looking fo reliability as well as better torque #'s. my d15b2 is pretty much maxed out on the stock bottom end....and i dont want to have too keep maintaining like i do now. being that my car is lightweight and all i really doont need the torque #'s that a teg would need or any heavier vehicle for that matter. i do intend on booting eventually down the line. my intentions at this point are 350 whp on a streetable car boosted.

Personally I'd still go with CRVTEC, as you'd have the good torque of the B20, and the VTEC portion of the B. LS-V is good too, but I'd think CRVTEC would be better. :confused:

Well do you want to go turbo/supercharger/nitrous/all motor?
Here are my thoughts, if you are going all motor and never intend to use nitrous, turbo, or a supercharger. Go with the B20Vtec, problem there is the cylinder walls are way to thin to do anything with but NA (Unless you plan on spending a grip for sleeves, then you can toss this statement out the window)
The Ls is a much better bottom end to boost on because the sleeves are much thicker.
Give me an idea on what you power goals are and I can point you in the right direction. :smokin:

maybe he has edited it since youve seen it but his goal is 350 WHP and he wants to boost it, im assuming turbo
