Ok im at the point where i want more power out of my engine but i have a cross road. Do i want to go turbo or do i want to go N/a with a 75 shot. I was wondering which is more reliable? This is my daily drive, and reliability is a must, but i want to be able to hit 13s. Im leaning more towards N/A and the 75 shot but i dont know. Any feed back on both would be great. And if i go N/a is it better to go block to head or do head work then block?

Thanks in Advance. This is going to be done on a B18c1 (GSR) engine.

 

na with a 75 shot is still forced induction.

nitrous has its advantages as well does a turbo.

its all personal prefrence.

turbo will cost alot more, but its quicker and probably more reliable than a nitrous setup (unless you upgrade fuel system and tune it out on a dyno)

 

Turbo. More options.

and ur motor will last longer.

 

i say turbo.

 

I rather go N/A. It depends what motor you want. A GSR motor with bolt ons can get you in 13's if you can drive.

 

but a gsr turbo can get you in the 12's or better

 

Im not really looking for 12s or anything. If i can run 13.7 all day ill be more then happy. Its in a coupe not a hatch by the way. And i already have a GSR swap. I heard that if you go turbo most likely ill have to replace the engine before the turbo. And i drive to San Diego (from LA) like 3 times a week, and i go to Arozina like once a month, same with Northern Cali. So i was wondering which would be better with driving like that and still can hit 13s, you know? Thanks again.

 

A 75 shot isn't N/A.

You may have to build up the engine to safely handle that much nitrous.

 

The 75 shot im still undesided on. If i go with it, it will be way down the road. And even then im not so sure about it.
