whats up guys, after researching i think im leaning towards ls/turbo. Now i just need to get a plan.

ok heres what i think will happen. Once i get my hatch, ill get the LS swap and build it rigth away while it is out. Most likely eagle rods with some kind of 9.5 c/r slugs, dont know which yet because i havent done enough research.

i will save again and get the drag 3 kit, or the drag 4 if it is out. I p[lanon doing all installs so who know what will happen with that .

ok now lets just be hypothetical for a second......with good tunig what kind of numbers will this put to the ground @ about 7-9 psi?

I know that you can run that on stick internals, but i know that it will eventually be too little and i will want to upgrade.

Ok so lets hear what you guys think about this set-up and also what you guys run??


thanks a bunch.

I did everything myself (with the help of Team S:Factor in Sierra Vista, AZ) so that saved me quit a bit of money.....I got the motor out of a rear-ended Integra(43k miles) and Ben@importparts.com gave me a sweet deal on the Drag 3 kit....

I never have any problems with detonation....I uses NGKBCPR7ES-11 spark plugs, 93 octane pump gas with octane booster, stock timing, and I pray to the Honda Gods before I leave the house......except on Nov. 18th....
