Default Project RS Turbo

1995 RS 192km (120miles)
People always fight with me when i say that LS is a better choice for a turbo then a GSR. What is better?

First mod i am planning for my RS, is a turbo kit. Well, i well be rebuilding my engine in the summer and then installing the turbo myself (it's a really freaking hard compared to a supercharger). I will leave the outside mostly stealthy stock and go eat them rice cakes. My first cheap mod was removing part of the air box (i have like no money) just for the grunting sound at WOT. It feels more responsive.

Problem is i think i had to many beers. Now i look at it, it makes no sense, i just wanted to know whether a GSR turbo or a non-vtec B is better.

Here we go again.

A GS-R will make more power per psi of boost than an LS. The only reason why people pick the B18B for boosting is that it's lower compression ratio makes it safer to boost.
