LS/Vtec Turbo?!

[K-Factor_808]

Alright i know that a lot of people said not to put boost on an LS/Vtec, because of too high of a compression motor... People saying that it wont even last a week or so... Saying it is not worth trying, saying it will blow easily... So is it impossible to do it? Is there any way to make it last just as long as any Boosted car?

[18c]

yes you can do it. it will be fine.
Lots of factors involved in a reliable turbo motor, they arent any more prone to blow then other B series motors, they still involve the same issues.
probably the same people who say that B18a/b's are better for turbo then gsrs or b16s right? :crazy:

I guess so... Im going to do some research on this build... You from hawaii too?

It all depends on how you put it together and how you drive it, especially if it's your daily. One thing to make sure of is you check your oil on a consistent basis. Good luck.

what is this? come on.
if you can turbo factory rsx-s at 11:1 why can't you turbo ls-vtec?
all comes down to tuning.
personal DD is gsr engine with mahle 10:1 pistons and procharger. 35k miles later i get 27-28mpg with a/c on and 270whp at 8.5 psi pulley.
if engine is built right and tuned right, you're fine.
