Default LS/Vtec N/A looking for some advice.

I have a P30 ecu and B16 DOHC Head. LS short block. P72 Pistons and I am doing the standard LS/Vtec Swap in reference to mating the two together however I am not sure to much on building an all motor honda and I was looking for advice on how to build a daily driver somewhere around 240-275 HP range. Any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated thank you.

240-275 hp B series street car will be expensive. Your looking at atleast 8000 if you do it right and want atleast some longevity. Also dont plan on running pump gas at 275whp. You might wanna look at what your getting yourself into before you throw yourself under the bus.

Ok, thank you yeah I know it would consist of a crap load of paper... I have a stage 2 turbo 65 trim ball bearing Garrett t3/04 should I just say screw it and run turbo cause it would be cheaper in the long run and I can still run 93 up to like 12 -14 psi right. I know this isn't the board for it but before I crush my dreams lol I just wanna know thanks everyone

Yeap, it could be done but it's going to cost a lot of money. It would be a best of the best type build.

That sounds tight, and I think my b16 tranny will fit with it... how much am I looking at for the pistons and rods and build for head? 1600 or more?

im a 20 year old kid with a some what decent paying job and am building an engine with those hp goals whp that is and i have close to 12K invested into my engine alone and am still trying to gather up parts to finish it.hp numbers do not mean **** to a tree, track times are what count, with this being just a dd the items you listed will be great for a dd car and a weekend warrior on a moderate budget. just my 2 cents.

for an all motor that WILL be expensive. but for boost you only need turbo parts and a good tune.

goodluck
