hey wsup peepz im new to ht just got a integ gs-r wanting to turbo it..... what upgrades would you say i should get if im going to turbo it down the like.... i got basic bolt ons like intake header and exhaust.... i have some vavlesprings and ti retainers waiting...if some one can help that would be tyte>>>>

 

How fast do you want it to be? How many psi do you wanna boost? and the big one...how much money you got?? lol go check out rev-hard kits they come with everything you need.

 

why get springs/retainers with such minimal mods?

 

if u already have an intake, header, and exhaust why not just supercharge it and use some of the parts u already have.

 

check out a procharger kit, u can usually find them for 2k with an intercooler. the great thing with prochargers are it comes with their own oil supply so ur not gonig to have to worry about the reliablity. also with the intercooler, bolting up the pc s/c ur going to get 307 whp on their stock 9lb pulley

 

^----wat he said!!! get that! ahahah!

 

what you need to do is search around this site, it has everything that you could possibly want to know about turboing your car, like what precautions and prep work you need to do, how to maintain it, tune it, etc. Just use the search function.

Also, if you plan to go turbo down the line, why did you start to mod your car in an all motor fashion? all of the mods you have now will be useless if you go turbo. The intake will be taken by intercooler piping, the header's spot will be filled with a turbo manifold and the exhaust will need to be upgraded for bigger piping. You could go with a supercharger like they said, and that could utilize the parts that you have now.

Are you planning on upgrading the valve train, other than springs and retainers? I'm asking because unless one of the valve springs is broken, there is no good reason to replace these parts unless you are upgrading the cams, valves, etc.

 

SC that ****! if it's a street car, which i'm guessing that it is, you don't want to be making rediculous amounts of power. 300whp is more than enough.

 

procharger and vortech...nice kits but essentially a turbo on a stick. the vortech imo is a dyno queen. seems that the procharger has the same characteristics. peak power wont hit till redline....the thing with cf superchargers is the charger makes more power as the rpms increase...notice how procharger and vortech dont list dyno charts on their websites....
i was gonna go supercharger...but did my research and thought it to be not the smartest way to spend my money...reserach before you make such a large investment

 

thanx for all the input... i was going to shoot for around 270 whp.... o i got the valve springs casue my friend had it laying arnound so i took it from him... his car got stolen the day he got the valve springs...i was think about building the head for now so i get that high rpm and vtec sound.,,,,..and get an ecu dunno which one yet...actually i a noob with gsr mods... i drive a lancer evo and got this car for fun....might give it to my little bro when he gets old enogh to drive

 

i for sure heading down the turbo way... i basically want to know what should i do so i can imm prep the motor i guess for the turbo thats going to come later..???

 

he has an evo...........we must all bow to him now......"master!"

 

That's a nice "beater"...
Why don't you upgrade the Evo?
You may be more successful...

 

spend the money on the evo not the gsr. if i was rihc and everytime i hear the name GSR, i would always think EVO GSR not integra gsr.craaaaaaaaaaaazy im so high right now!!!!!

 

welcome

 

lancers almost all done this is for my lil bro and basically my toy car untill he gets a license

 

Get a leak down and compression test done.

If you are boosting high then build the engine accordingly.

 

maybe its not such a good idea turboing the car and giving it to your bro when he first gets his license...
