I have done some research on turbos just want to know some opinions on if it is was worth putting a turbo on an ls
and will I take a non turbo but with some mods gsr.
thanks in advance

LS turbo is the way to go....then once you get the money to go a little crazier, just sleeve the LS block and get a ported VTEC head...LS/VTEC + Boost would be a blast. A lot of the higher HP turbo cars i know of are LS/VTEC or straight LS engines...their only downfall is the head. You can still make 300whp on the stock block though

--my setup is for sale and it would easily make 350whp on an LS....pm me for more detail....**end sales pitch**

thanks and it will be the ls with a turbo i just got a good deal on one

well lets hear the setup....and please dont say SSAutoChrome...

Or XS power for that matter. They both are complete pieces of junk.

pm'd back

picked the ls it alredy has a couple of mods and i think it will make a good base car
dc header & full exhaust
cold air intake
dropped on 17's
short shift kit
front stut tower bar
repo friend picked it up from repo thought i would be interested I took it for a ride and felt strong someone got started on this project and i guess forgot to make the payments
I pick it up on friday
then i can look it over with more detail and find out a little more about the set up

the down fall on las engines is the bottom end. they can only take about 8 psi. the rod bolts suck. they are way too weak. if you want to go ls/vtec let me know. i got a buddy with parts. EVERY part to do it. read the sig. and figure out what you want. but an ls/vtec turbo is definitly a great engine.

LS can hold good power, but they cant rev out as high....pick a smaller turbo so that its more streetable....T3/T04E 54 trim .63 ar would be a good one

well i going to drive the car for aboout a month so I can work on it and do some test like compression test just to make sure she can handle the turbo.But I do need a good honda tuner in brooklyn ny
Not a part changer but a actual tuner I can change parts myself need someone to help me get the most power out of these aftermarket part

ok turbo s is the way to go...its gonna cost anywhere from 2-5k depending on how wild you go...the ls bottom end is fine..dont listen to the people who say "you can only boost 9 psi"..the stock block is only as good as the tuner...tuning is everything...the rod blots are weak because there from a d series motor but they wont break on you as long as you keep your stock redline, once you start to rev around 8 they will be the first part to go..but i vote ls turbo ftw
