im joking of course. i voted JDM B18B turbo cause it will be faster than an LS/V or a B18C5 and B20 sleeves are weak!

Turbo B18 is a really good set up. Not the cheapest of your choices but probably the most fun. And relatively speaking not that expensive.

don't be a retard dude. it is a FACT that thinner sleeves are weaker. you can't argue with physics.


OP- you never said what your budget is. need to know that before you can make an educated decision.

if you have a budget of 5 grand you can build a nice reliable gsr turbo. that will be the most bang for your buck in my opinion.

it's worth the money, and it can be done for 5k if you know where to find the right parts. the big deal is finding a k20 for a great price. after that, hybrid-racing sells everything needed to install for around 3k.


barefoot- why stick with a LS? i'm not arguing that its also a very good solution, i'm just wondering as to why you picked that? a stock GSR with a nice kit would be within his budget and probably make more power from the get go. trying to find some sort of decent discussion in here lol

not to mention ls's are in huge supply and can be found everywhere with a tranny to bolt to it.

sleeves are too weak to go with that setup. he wouldn't be able to run anything past 8psi without having to resleeve.

or you could go really cheap and boost a single cam, lol.:gay:

i'm still for the LS/T.

ah ok i gotcha.

MasterShake- what makes a LS/t more fun than a GSR turbo? lol explain that one to me. :lmao:


OP- a k-swap is not nearly as difficult as they were a few years ago, they have bolt in mounts, headers, you can retain A/C and P/S now, it is no more difficult than a B-swap. If you wanted to stay all-motor that is definitely the route I would choose.

he would spend less cash going ls/t over gsr since the ls would cost a good bit less.

edit, he could spend the extra cash he saved going ls and get some cams or something to make up the slight power loss of the all mighty vtec.
