i have recently completed a GSR swap into my 94 coupe, it's quick, but im getting bored quick. I want to go faster. so turbo or nitrous are my options just need some questions answered, please.
how much boost can i put to the gsr motor and still have a reliable ride.
what does it mean when a turbo runns out at higher rpm (will it not rev any higher? does it loose boost ? what happpens?)like too small of a turbo?
if i put lower compression pistons in is it also necessary to replace the rods and crank iif i do not plan on outragous boost on say a 9 or 9.5:1? and what kind of boost can i run with that CR?
and what type of fuel computer/boost controler is the best in your opinions
how big should i go with injectors or should i use injectors that only come on under boost which is better
what is the best turbo for resonable money for the GSR
PLEASE HELP i want to go fast but dont want to blow my shit up
THANKS IN ADVANCE

Don't waste money on the GReddy crap get a Drag kit or learn how to build your own, building a custom kit is hands down the best way to go! Do some searching and within a few mins you will find all the info you need to educate your self. Good luck :bigthumb:

This is something you should really look into, building your own kit will always give you the best bang for your buck.

i had kinda figured that a custom kit would be the way to go just trying to see what others have done in the past and have running now. i was thinking of going with larger injectors a super V-AFCII i have not finalized my decision on a turbo,, w/g,or manifold .... any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated

Greddy is overrated and over priced. Turbonetics Turbo's are really the best out there...hands down. Especially their ceramic ball bearing. I can get you a really good deal on a Turbonetics manifold with external wastegate for $465.00 shipped. It is a good start and you get a one year warranty from Turbonetics. It is made out of high carbon steel. If your dragging....dont get a internal wastegate!!

Price this Turbo....T3/T4E54 Hybrid, stageII Turbine, 0.63 A/R, SB. This is a perfect Turbo for a high boosting car....up to 500HP. I will beat everyone elses price!!! Try me...

Hondata is more expensive but would be a better fuel mangement system than the vafc hack. The vafc is still a good system and a lot better than a FMU, so its really up to you on how much money youre willing to spend. As for what turbo to use, I personally would go with a ball bearing turbo or a T3/T4. Wastegate: definitely go TIAL 35mm or 38mm. Manifold: Turbonetics makes a good one. Drag Manifolds and the OBX manifolds are known to crack so I would suggest you dont get these. You should also get a nice loud BOV like the hks or blitz; whats the point of having a turbo with out a loud PSSSHHHHT. =)
