Keep your LS the way it is, build the block, and boost the hell out of it.

NA type r motor = higher revs, longer life span
ls/vtec + turbo = lotsa torque, more maintanence, not street legal
that's one helluva choice. a few questions you have to ask yourself is how much you're willing to spend, and what the car will be used for most... daily driver, drag strip, race track?

A built all motor ITR will not necessarily last longer, RPM has a common meaning Ruin Peoples Motors.

That's true. Yes greddy makes a kit for the GSR, you can make it fit on the LS. However, greddy is supposed to be releasing the LS kit, or should I say, Greddy is a bunch of slow bastards the kit was supposed to be out last Xmas.
