ls motors are better to turbo than lsvtec, lsvtec high compression will harm your max horsepower output

stock b16 head ls block lsvtec is i think right around 9.6-9.8:1 compression, still fine for boost if you have a good tune

i was refrencing to if he might have swapped out the OEM b18 pistons to gsr or itr pistons, compression would be alot higher, or if he swapped them out for PR3

ohh ok. if you swapped pistons then you should at least run a thicker headgasket, but sometimes they can be not as reliable bla bla bla.... just might be best to get a different block or low comp pistons. im sure you can find a set of srp's for less than 400
