where is the 20b

where can i buy a 20b? preferably a new one, but used is fine as long as it runs good. i looked for one and the ones i found said they only put out about 280 hp. isnt there a 550 hp one? i am going to buy one around christmas time, so if there is a company that can make me one, which company would that be and what are installation costs?

thanks.

Prepare to get flamed for not using the "SEARCH" button.

There is an abundance of info and even a thread with the total estimated cost.
All you have to do is look!

the 20B is foreign to the usa, no vehicle here has it stock. the cost to import that engine then pay to have it installed will cost you over $15,000 (and i might be giving you the benefit of the doubt here, its probably more.) i guy in puerto rico has a 500hp one, but puerto rico has that engive available, plus he did all the work himself thus saving himself a boat load of money.

and i predict this for this thread:

if u arent going to install it yourself..... be prepared to fork over $25-30k. you need the engine, rebuild, new turbo, tons of custom crap (mounts, exhaust manifold, IC piping), tuning, and LABOR! Also bigger wheels/tires for all that power. And a built tranny.

This project would cost $15000 if you do it by yourself otherwise it would cost more
than the value of the car.

remember,
Once you cut the cross member of the car you can't go back and install the Renesis.
