Default question about ls turbo and hondata!!

Im doing a ls turbo setup and im planning on buying hondata s100 with a boost setting. Now my question can hondata improve my redline. I redline at 7200 rpm I want to at least redline at 8200 rpm. Or will I just have to just change my valve spring and retainers. I was looking into buying the crower turbo cams, valve spring and retainers. If anybody is running a ls turbo setup and they have aftermarket valve train please post it. thanks

yes, hondata can adjust your redline.

but with stock valve train, i wouldn't take an LS head that high. you will float a valve or 16. so basically, you're going to need both.
crower makes some good, reasonably priced ls valve train and work well with their cams that you want to run.

you don't need valves.

you need valve springs and retainers.

Go with supertech valves, springs and retainers. I've been using these for some period of time now and they haven't failed on me once.

Yes, hondata can move up your redline.

BTW- The snow sucks!!!

Snow is fun for all wheel drive donuts in your buddys WRX or GSX

No-one is concerned about the cylinder walls on a 8500 redline B18B?

pretty much don't go pasted 7000rpm. it doesn't pull after this. You can try upgrading the springs and retainers.
