This may be an old question but i tried to search and couldn't find what i needed.
I'm thinking about swapping a b18A/B in to an eg. Just wondering how much boost/horsepower the stock rods/pistons/crank can handle?
I don't really want to open the block and build it cuz of a lack of $$.
Also planning on some mild head work: cams, port/polish, valves/springs/retainers if needed.
Thinking about a garret gt28rs turbo. Estimated power:200-250 at wheels???
Any help would be appreciated. Thanx. Love this board.

Check out the LS-Turbo thread:

LST / LS-T Turbo B18A B18B setups

tons of info on there and lots of setups. some stock blocks, some not.

also check out:

H-T's highest HP on a stock block thread....

lots of good setups making crazy power on stock blocks. with that turbo you should make plenty more than 200whp
goodluck

Thanx for the info everybody. I found that ls turbo thread right after I posted this one. I feel like a retard.
I just cut and pasted the same thread from that other board. I'm lazy.
