    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.
    Who knows?

    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.
    Who knows?

    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

    cause a LS/t is fucking fun as fuck to drive and he would still have some cash left over to do whatever with.

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

    discussion about the b20 turbo has been done.

    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.

    i'm still for the LS/T.
