The guy was talking about the 18g which doesn't support huge HP numbers, so I based my answer on a lower powered car. The GSR tranny will have the advantage.

i dunno about this.... i think they put the redline at 6800 for a reason.

You do both those things and you have a motor that's more expensive than a GSR. Also, don't compare stock motors to modified ones, it's apples and oranges. I do agree that it's nice LS motors are much cheaper than gsr or type-r's, though.

no..yours is ls/vtec..it's asking to be blown up!

 

the greddy turbo kit fell through and now i am looking at a drag kit. Any opinion on this kit. How does it compare to the rev hard? i want to put up some good hp numbers so let me know.

 

drag or rev hard?

 

RevHard &gt; DRAG IMHO...

ok port the head there goes the high flow advantage, upgrade the valve train there goes the redline plus if u blow a ls they are dirt cheap unlike a gsr motor
all these damn VTEC wars nobody on here can say that they like a ls setup more than the GSR without getting flamed by the VTEC guys</TD></TR></TABLE>

yes you can, and you didn't say that, you said b18b is better for boost, you didn't say you prefer it to a vtec motor, get ur head on stright

 

you guys should use a different post and not go off this guys topic to babble about which engine is better turboed. all he is askin for is help. go for the revhard.

I looked at srp pistons and found 9.2 and 8.5 compression ratios. I was wondering what you guys thought on the comp ratio and what psi they would be able to handle(with eagle rods). Also i can buy a cheap greddy turbo with and 18g. I am not familiar with the 18g. What is its max psi. Can it handle around 15 easily? Let me know what you think.</TD></TR></TABLE>

I would go with 9.2 compression. The Greddy 18g is a great turbo, the only problem is the internal wastegate. If your boosting 15+, it will creep and spike. The 18g is a well balance turbo for fast spools and top end. You can make decent power with this turbo, I think the usual T04E compressor are too big sometimes.

Oops didn't read that. Both are great kits, I personally like Drag for the chrome piping . Rev-Hard has a better manifold though. Can't go wrong with either one.

u better have a tall *** tire if u plan to use a gsr tranny....If u go this route be prepared to run out of gear in the top end....this is from expierence btw...not from what I think will happen if u go w/ gsr...

 

is the rev hard gonna offer more power than the drag?

 

rev hard or drag?

 

full-race

too expensive

 

The Drag kit is supposed to be lower quality but the power (with all things being equal) will be about the same.

 

sparks or max rev?

 

Build your own. You get all the pieces you want for about $1k less.

 

hey I have a 92 integra ls that i rebuilt the motor and put a turbo on over the summer. I know this isn't the best setup but i will tell you what i have. I have all new stock interals asside from the crank it is the original crank. I had the head checked and redone. I am running a commet head gasket that drops the compression ratio to 8.5:1 and a nuformz block gard, with a ford t3 turbo, front mount ic, 330cc injectors out of a 89 ford probe gt "direct fit", apexi afc, walbarow 255lph in tank fuel pump, vortech FMU 8:1 ratio, act 6 puck clutch, tial wastgate and a turbo xs rfl blow off valve. i am running 13lbs on the motor now with no problems tuned on a wide-band o2 sensor and laptop. i have checked the compression every 2000 miles when i change the oil and it seems to be doing great. asside from all this i deliver pizza for papa johns i deliver in the car everyday although i do have a beater to drive when i have to work on the integra. at the local track (Bristol, Tn) i ran a 13.8 @ 104mph on 11lbs of boost. I have not ran the car on 13lbs at the track yet but i would guess that the car is putting down around 200-250 hp at the wheels. ok the point of this story.... b series motors are impressive even with stock interals and the only thing that will make you go faster in this game is MONEY... something i don't have a lot of i spent 4,000 dollars for the turbo setup and the cost of rebuilding the b18a1 stock.

 

does anyone have experience with the sparks kit?
