yes they are thin compared to the rest of the b-series, but they aren't just going to blow just because u add a turbo. also out of all of them this is the cheapest engine to get, put a v-tec head and turbo and u will see 300 hp.

b18c turbo with 10psi or higher = booom. the truly best motor for f/i goes to the b18a/b, u can boost up to 12 psi stock, with the right internals and turbo, 600+ whp can be created.

b20's and b18 a/b have more torque than the b18c. the crv has 133 lb/ft of torque at 4500 rpms, as the b18c has 128 lb/ft of torque at 6200 rpm, so i don't see how you can say that b18c has lots of torque. i mean, it does, but other engines have more torque at lower rpms. the ls comes with like 130 lb/ft of torque i believe at like 4500 rpms as well.

the b18b only have 125 ft/lbs @ 5200 rpm's but i understand where you are coming from
