We're talking about puting a motor from a 2500 pound car into a 3200+ pound car. Big difference. Not to mention having a considerable amount of additional drivetrain loss.

Yeah, maybe PEAK, but that would mean you have to be into it to move the heavy ass CRV. Compare the torque curves of the two motors. Peak power won't mean ---- for drivability. If you can't make any torque until 6000rpms, how is that going to work out in a daily driven 4wd grocery getter?

Yeah but a b16 with a smallish turbo should be able to make the same or better numbers down low as the b20

However, he has a turbonetics t3/t4 on it. Might be a bit too laggy for the CRV. :-\

He could alwayz trade for somthing a lil smaller and quick spooling becuase i dont think traction will be an issue with this project :P

Yes i could that is why we call them projects instead of finished products.a t3 super 60 would be a good snail.less critisism and more input please.i think the torque issue is covered :P

I would do it.
Don't let that engine go to waiste...
Drop that B20 like it's Hot.

Yep, and then hype up the Integra with the B20 swap.

"Yeah, I swapped in this B20 because it has more torque. I ran an 11.4 on street tires at the track with this setup."

no it`s not :P
imgaine you are carrrying 5 ppl in the car. (almost 4000lb)
1)up front is a really steep hill.
2)u got full load of grabage in the back
3)you just came to a complete stop
4) the car behind u didn`t leave u no room to roll back
now do u think u have enough room to rev pass the laggy rpm (1 - 2 K with a SMALLE TURBO i assum?) before the turbo STARTS to built boost?
oh well
:P :D
