Re: what numbers to expect, LS-VT (projectPSI)
It is hard to say. I have a sc61 ls-vt and 8psi made 300. I forgot the other numbers cause I was having so many problems which are fixed now. I need to re dyno one day.
I will tell you one thing right now ditch that Ls transmission. Get a b16 or Gsr. Night and day difference from ls to gsr.

Re: what numbers to expect, LS-VT (redturbocivic)
how high could i rev with that setup? The head will stay stock for a while but will be upgraded with cams, springs, and retainers in teh near future.
would lets say 300 whp with like a 8000 rpm redline be a safe, reliable goal on the stock head and stock sleeves and other parts listed. I understand tuning is key.
The rotating assembly withh be balanced.

would it be a bad idea to run my ls-vtec prepped for turbo, (pistons, possibly turbo cams) without the turbo on? I want to build teh motor, run it for a while and then save up a bit of cash and do the turbo setup. What are the disadvantages of doing this? Will i be losing a lot fo power? What numbers shouldl i expect on a non turbo ls/vtec prepped for turbo.

The #'s wont be that great since your runing such a low c/r. But you shouldn't have any problems, just make sure you tune it for allmotor then retune it for turbo.
