Turbo for GSR with b18c5 swap?
Hi guys im new here.
I have a 94 GSR integra with a 98 b18c5 from a type r.
I was wondering what type of turbo you guys recommend.
People tell me no turbo due to high compression.
I want to know what i can do to turbo this car. That is my goal.
Is there anything i should know before i attempt to do this?
Any answers will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Yes you can turbo it, however you are going to be running at a lower boost level due to the high compression
do a search on turbo GSR... guys are making good power with stock engines

Re: Turbo for GSR with b18c5 swap? (DuckEggs)
hey, im runnin a turbo jdm gsr which i know isnt quite high compression as urs but its close, i run 8-10lbs daily on stock internals. I'd recomend u do what i did and add a heavy duty thicker cometic headgasket and arp headstuds, i did this and my compression went from 10.6 down to around 10.25. so u can lower it that way and its fairly easy, this will allow u to run 7-10 psi on a good tune daily, my car has been runnin strong as is for exactly a year now with turbo, daily driven 8-10psi, and high compression. so thats a big screw u to everyone who didnt think it was possible or doubted the motor lasting.......... in the end its all about the tune and takin care of ur motor....hope this helps lmk seeya and goodluck
