What would you put in a EG?Turbo,LSVTEC?
Im curious to what you guys have experienced from both.Ive heard good and bad things about both, but i know if you treat your care well, and keep it tuned nicely then it shouldnt be much of a problem. Having money for either one is not a problem because whatever i do it wont be until feb or so.Just want to get some insight on what you guys think.Thanks for your time.

Well, I faced that decision too. I decided to go with an LS/VTEC. I built it properly, and I have had no problems, but I am beginning to wish I had gone with an LS turbo setup instead.

Yeah im leaning toward turbo. I might even go LSVTEC turbo.Maybe not, but its just thought. Keep it at a safe 7 pounds, and let ur rip.

Im set on a LS motor.Im just thinking if i should go LSVtec or LSturbo or even LSVtec/turbo.My friend is running a LSVtec turbo at 6 pounds and hasnt had any problems with it in 2 years.So im thinking of "borrowing" his set up and have him help me put it together.

I went LSVT and then LSVT turbo but if I was to do it all over again I'd choose a GSR swap and turbo it later down the road.
If I knew that a turbo would be out of the question...then ITR for sure.
Good luck with your project

I seen the same car man, It was blue right. What the hell happened to it the last run thought? It sounded like he fucked something up internally!! BTW: Spoonman, I was the one who took all kinds of pics of your sweet *** hatch!!! I had the white eg on 16"konig traffics.

SLPR, or anyone else with this set up of turbo LSVTEC, what did you think about it, i mean did you like it but, blah blah blah, or you just totally didnt like it because blah blah blah, i would like to hear what you guys have to say. Just wondering the Pros and Cons to it.I know it might not be much, but my goal is to run 12's, high or low.As time passes i will have more money and time to try to go even faster, why stop at that right.But as of now 12's and i will be a happy guy.Thanks for the imput guys.
