mwhahaha. hows the lexus comin josh? it better be boosted
the setup as of right now is follows.
b18b block
bored, honed, resurfaced, hot tanked and jet treated
golden eagle block gaurd tigged in place
cleavite bearings
eagle rods
wiseco 9.3:1 pistons
type r oil pump
golden eagle ls/vtec conversion kit
golden eagle head studs
password jdm intake gasket
rest of gaskets are all oem aside from GE head gasket
gsr cams
skunk2 cam gears
stock b16 head with valvejob

garrett t3/t4 60/63
tial 38mm wastegate
cc-fab chuck norris manifold
bov is undecided, probably hks sequential
jrc 8in FMIC anodized black
cc-fab intercooler piping
precision 1000cc injectors
crome pro

most of the turbo stuff has yet to be ordered aside from the intercooler, wastegate and the manifold is being made.
the goal is 400-450 whp. i think its possible with some good tuning.
for those of you going ls/vtec with a b16 head. it has been proven by numerous people that the b16 has better over all flow then the b18c1 head. the b16 head is damn near identical to the type r head from what i have been reading. the gsr head also yields a higher compression ratio so keep that in mind. and if u do get the b16 head, one must know that b16 cams kinda suck. the cheapest and most readily available upgrade would be cams from a gsr. there are very similar to crower turbo cams. the ideal choice would be a set of itr/ctr cams as they have very nice characteristics for boost believe it or not, but have a much higher price tag then gsrs. i got gsr cams and cam gears for 150 shipped. itr/ctr cams on average sell for over 300 for set.
evans tuning out of pennsylvania has dyno graphs that show the advantage of gsr cams over b16 cams. heres the results.
