Am I wasting time
 

With a 20b series d swap into a truck?

everyone is telling to do a turbo 2 swap and build it up. I know 350whp isnt going to hold me for very long thats why Ive choosen the 20b to build. I just have been getting alot of hatered for doing the swap.

Im also wondering what little JDM nick nacks I can get for the engine to put some attention to it.

Wasting time? Its your time to waste so who are we to judge. :)

A 20B in anything is awesomer than a 13B in anything IMO. If your power goals exceed 400ish RWHP, then a 3 rotor is the way to go. ~500 is readily attainable. Traction will be a challenge so make sure you budget in necessary upgrades in wheel, tire and body mods to support that kind of power. Don't forget the brakes too. You'll also need a more robust tranny. Do some research on power levels that the tranny can withstand before they break. I usually see people start breaking trannies at 450 RWHP or so, not to mention diffs.

350-400 RWHP won't require as many drivetrain, suspension and brake upgrade$$$$ so plan accordingly if you want a setup with good driveability.

IMO, I'd do a TII swap on a truck. The truck chassis just isn't that great for the kind of power levels a 20B can make.

ppl just hate thing that are different on here. dont let ppl on this site discourage you to do something new man. its your money and time to do with what you want.

If you have the time and money to do such a project... why settle for a 13b? Heck, why not build up a 4 rotor?

If it is between a 20b and a 13b go 20b all the way. You will have the nicest truck around.

what type of truck? if it was a REPU, a rotary truck (the only one) anything would rip its drivetrain apart lol.

less a waste of time, more of a 20b. That said, i would still be jealous of a truck with it installed :-P

its a 89 mazda b2200 fully bagged and 4 linked. on 20s and the 20b series d is being rebuilt not now, oh and Im not a man. this isnt my boyfriends ride nor do I got one.

whats got you interested in putting it into that truck? sounds kinda cool.

a guy told me I couldnt do it! and that I wasnt an enough to attempt it.

When it comes right down to it, it is all a matter of how much resources (time, money, work) you have available to throw at it. Mechanical aptitude also plays a big part in any major project. Do not just do something to do it or to prove a point either. Do it because this is what you are wanting to do. You will have a much easier time or it and it will be more more enjoyable.

well i been wanting to do it since i rode in my brother T2 and now Im going to do but Im building for laughs and extra points at the shows.
