to B, or not to B? that is the question
i am about to assemble a vitara TT block and i have a very large turbo that i plan to mount on it. i would love to see between 400-450 whp, which i dont think will be all that difficult, since the turbo i have is capable of so much more. i am trying to decide to sleeve a z6 or go the B series route. there are so many 400whp single cams out there now that i feel that i will need to go bigger very soon. i have an LS that has been sitting in my garage for over a year but i cant bring myself to put it in my car. everyone and their brother does that. would a 500whp z6 be more amazing than a 600hp ls? no matter the direction, the next block will be sleeved, revving to the moon, and breaking axles quicker than noobs get flamed. if it was purely for myself, it would be a sleeved D, but a shop is in the works and i need to show my abilities. i have changed lots of things on my car due to this but i just dont know if i can let go of the little D. thanks for reading my bullshit rambling and hopefully some of you can give me some insight and help me in making the decision that i really want. cause in the end i have to be happy, its my car.

honestly, i think a high horsepower, badass d would better show your skills. Like you were saying, everyone and their mother has a b-swap, and it will take more work and expertise to get impressive power out of the d than it will the b, so to showcase your sKiLlz and have a fun car, stick with the d. Then again, b builds give me boners, so to each his own I suppose? Agree to disagree?
