Default keep the GSR, or LS TURBO.

right now i got a b18c1 gsr in my ek hatch, i was wondering if i should sell the gsr because i can get a complete LS swap for 700, and sell the gsr swap for 2gs, and use 1300 towards a turbo kit.

any suggestions?

i heard LS turbo is reliable if done right, but i am going to miss the vtec.......

What do you want to do? Thats not really something for other people to decide especially since they are both fun setups. But if you do go LS turbo you'll never miss the vtec.

Damn! both are good set ups, but I'd keep the GSR, then turbo it in the near future!

COMPLETELY stock bottom end, just skunk2 intake mani, and spoon TB, and supposidly CTR cams, reason for saying that was cause i bought the car with the motor in the car already and i really dont know if there really is CTR cams installed, but i just basically just installed the turbo kit.

GSR BOOST FTW!
