Right now I am running a t3/ t4 turbo on a ls engine. I have the right parts for the set up that I am running, but I am not too pleased with not having the same feeling I had when I had my GSR engine. I MISS VTEC. So what I was wondering, is it worth it for me to swap heads, and run a ls/vtec boosted in my hatch? Please let me know
Thanks,

 

yes swap it

 

 

http://www.boosted-hybrid.com had a 300whp ls w/ low boost
had a built ls head--maybe an option for ya

 

yes do ls/vtec , swap that head off of there

 

i love my boosted ls/vtec pulls hard as a ****...almost as good as my freinds f22/vtec hybrid under boost...although 2.3l of disp = nice torque...but my 1.857 feels nice too w/ a hx35 snail

 

yes, swap on a b16 or itr head

 

I'm all for swapping....click the cardomain link in my signature/scroll about 3/4 down the first page and you'll see why.

 

DO IT!!! JUST DO IT!

 

I dunno, but I have heard that LS/Vtec engines tend to work terribly with boost. is that true?

ls/vtec's=unreliable ......it's a myth! If you don't put it together right and don't tune it correctly then yes it's going to be unreliable.

The main reason for the misconception is probably that alot of the honda people doing the conversion try cutting corners to save a buck. Then their buddies see it blow up and think ls/vtec's are unreliable....and it snow ***** from there.
