Please refer to SCC...stovk LS in hatch on boost and hondata running 11s....."the only thing holding it back from low 11's and high 10's are the 440cc injectors, so 880's are on the way"

If you're afraid to open your motor up then just do a stock LS with boost. You'll have a 12 second car with a little tuning. You've already got the LS motor so just do that.

find me an ls vtec with boost that hasnt blown up at least 2 times then ill be happy....im not a fan of ls/vtec but daves car was extremely fast, i just dont see the reason to put a vtec head on your car if your not gonna do something to the internals , i mean if your gonna rev to 8 you better at least put some fucking arp rod bolts in there to keep your shit together in an ls motor, but if your not gonna open the motor up, just boost the ls........

LS/VTEC+turbo=fast. So some people think it's unreliable, well it can be...but shit happens. It's proven to be quick, and that's what's convincing me at the moment. Built LS/VTEC+turbo+CRX=10s...and that was 2 years ago.

its all a money issue, and what you want... for the price of a turbo you could have a built ls/vtec/nos, to many people feel because they read it in a magazine they can make it happen just as easy, its all about whats available to you. but do what you want, do alot of reasearch for yourself. asking people is gonna get you no where. fuck it, in my opinion sell the ls motor, and do a b20/vtec... turbo or nos

put it this way....A Ls redlines at 6,800-7000rpms..A GSR or Si red lines at 8,200-or 9,000 rpms with chip....Now without building that LS up it wont be able to handle the high rev for that long,before it starts breaking shit ....Cause that Ls has never in its life seen 8,200rpms and taking it there is dangerous with out building the block up, And getting all the oil inlets switched to ones off a Si or GSR so that it will be oiled properly..If not the stock ls ones won't inject enough oil and it will start to burn up the block and pistons....
Im just going on what it said off the import performance page...
It also says there possible to build but need to be built the right (all work done by a machine shop) to get them to run and last for ever like stock honda engines are known for..
