I believe that you have it the opposite. The gsr will be faster than an ls/vtec due the the compression ratios, because the gsr has higher compression (hence the 92 octane neccessity), and therefore it will produce more power.
EDIT:
I stand 100% corrected. Great info in the thread, definately bookmarked
