thats the biggest waste of time...

 

How so? If he is asking what he should use, why not throw in the LS crank? LS crank you will get the most tq. b16 head is fine as its a type r casting. Granted, he could use the b16 block.

 

garret make 54 trim and also 57 trim chargers, would I be better off with a 54 with the same spec A/R ratios in the turbine (0.63) running at a higher PSI to gain around 260-280 bhp and a slightly quicker spool up time?

(but the 54 doesnt have the 360 bearing inside it (not standard anyway)) then theirs also the t60 trim..but i think that will make more power than i really want.

and does any 1 know a good kit that has this charger with it or is it only available separately outsourced?

i have b16a2...stock.will probs be sourcing all the parts separately but just doing my homework at the moment.

yeaah boost the motor you already got

 

Sell the B16 and buy a B18 LS motor.

Lower compression and more displacement. 2 factors you should look at when it comes to boost. Ofcourse if your gonna build the motor regardless, it doesnt really matter.

 

1. GSR block and head with LS crank/rods
2. LS Block/crank and GSR head

I dont know why anyone would further complicate this by adding B16 parts to the mix. These are the options i would consider if this were my build. Due to cost savings, i went with the second option. Personally i would have rather gone with the first simply for the ease of no external oil lines for the LS/VTEC conversion
