ive heard the b18s are just harder than hell to boost with the compression issues.
Wrong.

yeah you can boost b18's fine...its just a good idea to lower compression if you're going to boost too much.

actually one of the best engines for boosting is a LS/VTEC

Definitely, but from what I hear, they're a whore to tune

It seems to me like routing oil to yet another location (a turbo), when your block and head are already short of what they normally get is not a good idea. No doubt it would make power, but I doubt it's reliability.

And CRVs crack too many sleeves when boosted. (Read up at B20vtec if you don't believe it.)

RE: TURBO?????
 
dont mean to thread jack, but why does it seem that there are more people using cast turbo manifolds when steel ones are supposed to be better? is that just an "advertising" thing?
just wondering...thank you.
