well im planning to do gsr turbo and i was wondering if i can just get any bolt-ons to get my compression low enough to run gsr turbo, like thicker head gaskets and some 450 or 550 fuel injectors and some more stuff instead of having to switch the pistons to lower compression pistons

you dont need to lower compression for turbo...you need some fuel management...along w/ some injectors

Yup, get a fuel pressure regulator, fuel gauge, 450cc injectors, and some sort of tunable/basemapped ECU for your particular appliation and you'll be good to go. But remember this, your car will run its best on a good DYNO TUNE. So if you want it to run at its full potential, get it tuned on a Dyno by a professional.

i am also planning on going gsr turbo too but i heard that unless you build your block you'll never be reliable..but thats only what i hear..i know you can run 7 psi daily driven but you need to be tuned. so i am going all motor until i save enough money to build my block

o yeah btw what about the head gasket? do i need to change that into a thicker one too? or oem will be fine?

Evanmb44

yeah...build internals for high boost. and its not psi, but power that limits a stock motor. as long as you are on a good tune and you are not trying to run a crazy amount of power, you will be fine. 300ish is probably around the limit for a reliable stock boosted motor....it doesnt matter how much psi you run

You heard wrong. I am running a GSR turbo (T3/T4 .63/.60) And im at 8.5psi all day long untuned. I spiked to 12psi once, scary **** but the car still runs strong. Completely stock motor.

All you need is a good fuel setup and management and your set to go. I wouldnt use a fuel pump no less then 190lhp. I used my stock DX fuel pump and it maxed out at 210whp with my VAFC hack. Now im on Crome and hoping for 300whp with more boost when i hit the dyno.

cool shiat then, btw any kind of spark plug wires or anything? and yeah what about hondata and uberdata, sorry but what do they do and what are they?

I have a turbo GSR running 8psi with a garrett gt28rs making 300whp (got it tuned by jeff at evans tuning). i did not do any internal mods got a new intake manifold, injectors, pump, and neptune.

dailly driven 130k mile gsr motor right here boostin 11 psi all day long.

tuning is key

Evanmb44

you will need some different spark plugs. i used ngk bkr7e gapped to .030 i would recommend that

im going gsr turbo i just got my low compresison pistons (weisco) now im gettin eagle rods, and i tihnk imma just boost it from their n see how everything goes....

if u get an inlinepro headgasket 2mm it will lower your compression to 9 to 1 on a usdm gsr and 9.6 to one on a jdm if u get the 3mm it will lower it 2 points and good tuning and a good tuner i recomend hondata and get it tuned by mase you and get bigger injectors and you will run prolly 350 to the wheels
