b20 power?

[Laumen]

i have been told by some people that if i swap my b18a out of my 1991 ls to a b20 that i will barely notice any power difference, but then ive also heard that i will feel a big difference. can someone tell me if this is true or not? my ls has the stock 130 hp. will my money be wasted by buying this engine?

What's wrong with your b18?

nothings wrong with my b18, but im looking for a some more power! i was considering going for boost but wasnt sure if a stock b18 with 130xxx miles could handle it!

Not really worth it unless your b18 has gone to shit, boost the a1 & get it tuned.

just build your ls unless your motor has taken a shit on you and you need a new one.

No it's never been done before. Seriously? Please take some time to look through the forced induction sections, these questions are extremely vague and basic
