Default Building up to LS-T

Hey guys,

Alright so I'm wanting to build up to LS-T and I'm not 100% sure on what I need to upgrade to keep the dependablity of my car on the high end. What should I upgrade before boosting to make sure I don't F my engine up?

it all depends on how much you plan to boost

the weak link in boosted hondas is usually the pistons

but tuning is the key to the reliability of your car

tune your car try not to beat on it all the time, and it will last you for a while on stock intenals just try to keep it somewhere between 250-300 whp

i say built the head cam gears. make sure you get the injectors and controllers and all that good stuff. my friend runs 12lbs daily driven on fully built LS does good.

i would just say start from the bottom end to top, piston is most important thing, most people who run turbo and blew, something was wrong with pistons
