looking to do a 20B swap, opinons needed
Hey everyone
im revisiting the subject ( sorry ) but i just cant walk away from it lol my heart is set on a 20b so i think im really gunna do it but before i do i want to ask a few last minute questions before i make my final desicison,
1) how much of a difference would i see? over all driving and handling performance
and turbo spool up time?
2) can my 5-speed trans bolts up to a 20B?
3) would my apexi powerFC be compatable with the 20B?
4) what kind of hardware would i need? ( suspension? motor mounts? comp? etc...)
5) and finally do you guys think really its worth it, for a motorhead kinda guy like myself do you think i would enjoy it more over a ported built 13b?
ALSO
this may be dumb but, could i take ( 2 ) 13b engines and put 3 rotor housings together? if so how would the intake be set up and how would the crankshaft from the motor to the trans bolt up?
thanks every one also, please feel free to give me some feedback, ESPECIALLY from the guys who have done it
thanks again

More than 80% of your questions are factual questions which can be answered in the 20B FAQ
Only the question in red will yield an opinion based reply...
So go SEARCH/READ as these questions have been asked a million times already..

1) A huge difference
2) Yes
3)No
4) You would need new everything. If you do not have at least $25K laying around getting dusty, this conversion is out of your budget
5)Depends on the value you put on having torque
The dumb question) No, it is not as easy as stacking another rotor and housing on the front of the engine.....
