Who had B18C Type-R w/ Turbo or GSR w/ Turbo

[Luke18]

I keep reading that you dont want to add a turbo with the C5 because they dont get along, and if you want to turbo a B18C go with the GSR. On the other hand people say it's a good combination. I wanted to know what are to pros and cons addition a turbo to the C1 and the C5. I am getting an engine from a shop who is sponsoring me and I wanted to know which engine to get and add a turbo. Also what exactly do I need to add to the engine to get is max power with the turbo. Thanks for the help.

Both engines will make great power turbocharged, but if you live in any area where you can't get 93 octane the 10.6:1 compression of the ITR motor starts to get a bit sketchy. If I were in your shoes, I would go for the GSR motor, and get a good EMS (hondata S200 or an AEM EMS) with a fuel system, bigger injectors, a new clutch, and a good tune. For the turbo kit I'd piece together different parts from different manufacturers, as you can build it much cheaper than you can buy a packaged kit. An inlinepro manifold, Precision SC61 or GT35, 38MM tial gate, PTE AS1025 intercooler, build the charge piping yourself, and then whatever bov you like.
