ls turbo or gsr turbo...what would be the better motor to go turbo??? any experiences??? is boosting better on low compression or high compression??? in my ej1

 

I went GSR-T alot of people go LS-T. In the end its what you could afford.

Boost likes lower compression for higher boost.

 

vtec + higher c/r nets more power at lower boost. ls- would be cheaper if you boost on stock motor. if you plan on building then either one will be expensive.

a while back a shop took a stout ls turbo and dyno'd it. they then did a ls/vtec on the same motor and made 109 more hp. vtec ftw

 

did you ever time your gsr-t or dyno it

 

about 3 years ago i knew this guy that was running b20/vtec then he tired b20/vtec turbo he said he liked the b20/vtec more...forgot the reason why but who knowss

 

of your choices...

gsr turbo. boost and vtec.best of both worlds

I personally like LS/Turbo...not a high-reving motor, but very torquey. Vtec is definitely not as important as you think when you're boosted.

Exactly, it's all about the condition of the motor and tuning.

I agree. The LS will have more torque at any given rpm, but maybe not as much hp. I would rather have the torque IMO if I were boosted. I like the vtec of my motor, but torque rules in sport compact cars.
