Define safe. If you have to ask....
What's any different than boosting any other H-series engine?
Do some real research in the Forced Induction forum.

Why on earth do an H2B setup and mate it to a sorry *** LS transmission lol

Haha

H2B + ITR tranny = good
H2B + LS tranny + boost = better tho!

Why?

turbo h2b car here 7.8@89mph with b16 tranny, switched to ls tranny 8.5 @89MPH. had to run 93 mph to run 7.8 with the ls tranny. DO NOT RUN A LS TRANNY.
I go to the track alot.

I didn't know that the theory of staying in boost longer with the ls tranny was still plaguing this forum LOL

Yes. Along with tons of other misconceptions.

i fell victim to this theory. i have a gsr tranny in the car now. going to the track next saturday with 400whp will see what happens. i did manage a 1/8th 7.6 @ 98 mph with a ls tranny and 23" slicks. 3rd gear kills you at the track you fall out of boost. with 24.5 slicks you can run 110 mph @ 8000 rpms but you got to have alot of power to make that happen fast.

also if you have problems with traction on a b16 or gsr tranny get a bigger tire.

what do u mean? staying in boost longer? what because of the longer gears?

What part of this is tripping you up?

Whiterice-gsr

the theory part and plaguing the forum, if you are a drag car obviously u want the shorter gears, are ppl trying to say ls is better because the gears are longer? just trying to understand why u guys are all like "here we go again" type thing is all.

ashb82

my gsr is alot better on the street than the ls also dead hook 3rd gear with 400hp on drag radials

Not really at all. Less acceleration.. Fell for the "LS Tranny keeps you in boost longer mess, eh?

Whiterice-gsr

im still not understanding how the ls tranny keeps u in boost longer, maybe i missed this topic or something.

oh i see, so ppl were saying that it would and there was a long drawn out thread on it? seems pretty obvious to me lol.
