I plan on building a engine with a custom turbo setup in the very near future. However, I'm not sure on some things. What is the best motor setup for a turbo application and why? What can handle a good amount of boost and still be reliable? Would you prefer to turbo a ls, gsr, or ls/vtec? Also.... is there a year in which honda blocks were made stronger than any other and if so what year is it? Im just trying to gather some thoughts together before I dive off the deep end and start spending my money. Thanks for your time. Brian.





P.S. If you know anyone that has a nice turbo engine for sale let me know...... so my decision is a little easier

 

gsr would obviously be everyones first choice but its obviously the most expensive. it all depends on what u wanna do with your setup.

 

just keep this in mind, low compression = more and safer boost (w/ appropriate fuel mixture) GET HONDATA!.

 

Good old GSR.

 

I would take the GSR.

 

+1, but as 99b16 said, it depends on whatya wanna do.

what car you putting it into?
