I think LS turbo is the best way to go. I have been 11.43@128mph on a all stock LS motor and if you blow up a LS you are only out 500 bucks. I give LS turbo

what kind of turbo do you have with the specs of it also? I am looking at a 14b turbo but alot of people are turning me to a t3/t4. Do you have a lot of lag and is it a good daily driver?

One thing can be said about the LS is that they are dime a dozen.

14b will spool almost instantly and good for start and go, but it will die off and probably shoot you around the 200+ hp with 10 psi. with a t3t4 its like 250+. But if you arent wanting to to make a lot of power and just want fun go ahead with the small turbo.

LS has enough breathing room for a 60-trim T04E, just ask civicflnum1

Personally, I was never a beliver in the non-VTEC untill this thing, after driving it enough with the sick low end torque and relativle cheap-ness of the whole setup, and the ability to make 300whp at only 14-15psi, I'm all for a good simple B18B turbo

Running Turbo on an Ls is fun and easy. If you're new you'll want to get a dirrect bolt on kit but if you have experience piece a kit together yourself. Please keep this in mind.....MAKE SURE YOU RUN THE RIGHT FUEL MANAGEMENT. I melted two pistons because I didn't have the right Fuel Management but atleast I'm rebuilding my motor to reach bigger and better goals. But like someone else said, you can buy another Ls motor for cheap and they're easy to find. Good Luck!

I am Currently in Shopping for Turbo Stuff. Its fun, you get everything you want, not what just the kit makes. I am having trouble though, deciding what turbo to go with, i am looking to do alot of auto-crossing, not so much drag racing maybe a few times. What turbo would you guys recommend. I am looking at T3 or T3/t4 and my friend wants me to get a t28 but to expensive. also what trims would be recommended.
