You seriously want to turbo the VX motor ? or Turbo the swap? If it is the VX motor your wasting your time.. I would go and get a D16Z6 with tranny for dirt cheap and swap that.. then turbo it.. you should get somewhere in that neighborhood of low 15's to high 14's with that setup.

I'm very happy with the gen. 2 B16A (there is no B16A2!!!) that me and my friend swapped into his VX. Huge improvement from the shitass D15Z, but what isn't? The car now seems more capable in every aspect. I can't wait to see what this combo of power, gearing and an LSD can do at the auto-x. I really don't get off on 1/4 mile times. Sorry...
