ZC Turbo since you are on a budget. I wouldn't really want to half-*** an LS/Vtec buildup. If you want to do the LS/Vtec do it right the first time and build it from the bottom up.

I'm hoping to dyno around 200 but I really have no Idea what my times are.

The BEST turbo would be a 14G from the 1st gen eclipse.

IF you wan to keep boost under 10psi I would use the 2nd gen eclipse T-25.

Both spool very quickly, but the 14G has more boost ability for the future.

with the T-25 expect full boost around 3000 rpm. with the 14G around 4000.

This is really the best way to get lotsa power out of a ZC though. Just keep the revs down, get full eng management, and stay under 10psi.

I would get the b18 and work to build the LSVTEC. I love mine. Plus it will beat most honda's on turbo. It is more expensive to go all motor. But, it's more fun in my opinion.

I am planning on running 12psi w/ a built ZC... what turbo would do? T3/T4? Or should I go ahead with the greddy kit instead of custom piecing it?
