    Default sooo...if i dont find the b20z....

    what should i look for? are any of the other b20 engines worth it? if i do find one tho, what should be the first i should do as far as moding it out....i know intake header and exhaust. but im goin to want to keep my exhaust from my ls, im pretty sure i can do that. so if i do that, what should i start with. im sure you all will say internals. but what? like pistons, crank, rods, etc. im curious to what yall think.

    No he didnt mean it like that!

    Stock B20 cant handle alot of stress from Turbo's/Nitrous due to the thin sleeves..

    do the basics with an ls intake manifold, hyatech header and a good cold air intake. You could also get a tune after that and pic up a few more hp

    i'd seriously consider just doing the gsr swap man seriously. i mean yea the b20 is good and all...but straight up..you are going to enjoy the gsr more...more fun and u still retain at least 32mpg, no BS

    you could do just the gsr swap and be at the same if not better than the b20 w/ all the mods of that header and what not. better engine to go any route with...
