Re: i am trading my gsr engine for a LS and a turbo kit have questions. (egvtec)
Well i say go LS.. but its all what u want.. i dont say keep the gsr tranny if you go boost on the ls.. i also dont say go vtec... ur motor will have alot of problems... the ls just isnt used to holding that high RPM... but u can build it to do it.. but problems will come just like with any other setup.. Right now i have an USDM LS in my Eg and i love it.. torquey... and all... i have the b16 tranny which i will be getting rid of soon.. (it just dont go with the boost and LS that i have)

The greddy kit is actually is good one. Be sure you know what you getting from him and it is not missing anything. I have seen many greddy kit successful stories.
Keep the ls and build it...just don't boost happy with stock internal. If you build an ls/vtec boost, it is kind of a waste of money imo.

About the ls tranny, I would agree to trade tranny also. The ls would be great for boost with the longer gears. And high speed boost is awsome. The gsr will help you spool faster but peak sooner.
