Hey i was wondering if anyone has ran this setup and how well it worked..

thanks

I never like to say never, but that is really an NA setup...

which type r pistons? itr or ctr?

if its itr maybe a little boost, ctr i'd have to say:

What's the compression ratio on that setup?? You can boost it, but the static compression ratio is going to dictate how much power you can safely make on a pump-gas grade fuel.

yeah, see ive heard so many yeahs and so many no's im confused i only want to do like 7 lbs of boost but i would really like to try something a little different you no i just figured it would work cuz people boost itr etc all the time. i was planning on getting either the jdm or usdm itr pistons what you guys think

If you want to boost with type r pistons go with usdm itrs,but you cant base it all on boost because thats not the factor its all about the tuner and the fuel you are going to run with. To be honest I havent heard of anyone boosting with typers in a lsvtec.

neither have i but thats why i want to try it.. im using 91 oct. and im going to get it tuned by whitfield racing. if youve heard of that.....but they said they would hook it up im going to use crome so you think it will work
