IM highly considering buying a big 16g for my gsr, does anyone have this turbo on there gsr? what kind of power did you make? thanks

 

Yes, a big 16G was used on a GS-R, and it was very interesting, but not at all suprising. Great response until VTEC came in, then just spun its little head off by 7K, and made only about 190whp or so. This was due to the MUCH more efficient head and block design of the GS-R compared to any 4G63. It's not just about bore and stroke in this case. It was the whole dynamic of the engine and turbo combination. I really wouldn't do it.

 

mmm interesting, how would it do on an LS??

so how much boost were you running?

So it held boost all the way to 7000k.
