hi HT people, i picked up a gsr short block with P73 pistons with all new bearings and a 2000 SI complete head, except for the distributor for a really nice price($850 if you really wanna know). now, i see that people with lsvtec or b20vtec with turbos running nicely, what i want to do with the set up i bought today is to JRSC IT. is there anyone on HT that have done a poor man's type r with jrsc? what you guys think about the set up, good idea? bad idea? i never had a n/a motor before nor have i assembled an engine. but if this set up is not reliable i'll take the n/a route. so come on guys help a brotha out, tips, hints, dyno sheets, set up list,or what ever!!!
for the head i'll get new set of valve train, the buttom end i'm going to leave alone because it looks like it just got out the shop, besides the JRSC, i going to have a and new injectors. i dont want a monster engine, so i think i can hit a modest 230hp-240hp on 6 psi and no lag. did i say no lag? i think i can get a lil bit more hp because on JR site they dyno'd a gsr with header, injectors, tuning and made 222hp and 159tq. wish me luck

please dont hate on the jrsc or tell me to go turbo because turbo honda lag and uber low ETs aint my bowl of rice

thanks people

from the current response from the forced induction section, i will be needing stock cam shafts and some cam gears

do anyone know if i will need to shave my piston for valve clearance?

 

i don't know about all that **** with the supercharger but i do know you'll need type r head studs arp. for the poor mans r

 

no i'll need apr gsr studs but thnx any way

 

come on guys help me please

 

I know someone selling a JRSC kit w/ 440 injectors! (see sig)

Don't hate on the "Honda turbo lag". I'm running a "disco potato" that starts boosting at 3K.

but i have a gsr block sir

 

so you still need them.

 

If you are using stock cams you won't need to notch the pistons. I think the only piston you need to do that for is a stock b20 piston.

I recommend a direct-port nitrous setup instead of a supercharger.

you have a pr3 head so you need the arp's for that head with a B18 block as the head height makes the difference.
