I have a stock LS/Turbo. I want to make a track only car but still street legal. Money is not really an issue. Should i build my current motor and make it VTEC, Get a fully built h22 Turbo boosting 25 psi, or a Fully Built B20 and put my Turbo on that. I've seen an add of someone selling there b20 vtec fully built pushing 260hp running hi 11's. Would the turbo do good on that? In case you were wondering i have a Greddy 18g turbo. I'm currently running low 13's with 6-8 psi. i want to hit low 11, high 10's or better. just throw some answers out there for me thanks. if you want to get technical then go ahead. if you don't then just throw your opinion out there real quick......all responses will help. thank you

You want that kind of hp, it won't be street legal. Or do you mean you want to be fast at the track but still use it as a daily driver? What exactly is your definition of "street legal"? Oh, and if you want to run low 11's or 10's you need a roll bar/cage; or they'll ask you to leave the track (any track).

Then the h22a turbo will always have the most potential (already has the advantage of hp and torque), though it will probably cost the most.

H22 would be a good choice or an overbored GSR is another popular choice....

the h22a turbo would deffinately be your best bet. an h22a with t3/t04E turbo, forged internals, a hondata s200 unit with boost tuned correctly, at 8psi will throwdown 363 wheel hp. then all you need to worry about is fuel and a new map sensor and you will be looking at more towards 500+ wheel hp.

500whp in a fwd will give you insane traction issues even with slicks and LSD

honestly unless this is going to be a strip only car, i would set your goals at 350 and below.....

also the turbo suggested was a little too small i think for a built car...if my engine was built i'd get a T3/t67 or a T3 60-1.....something a little bigger than the T3T4E 60 trim like i have...
