want to build ls turbo

Bought 94 Integra LS and want to build the motor for turbo. What would be a good setup so that I can run close to 20 psi. Any help please.

Youll definantly want to sleeve the block at that point. Theres a website that has a 96-00 Civic Hatch that runs with a 10 second viper (has a vid) and they show how to build the engine. Its a turboed LS with no Vtec. I think that its called Island Motorsports.

anyway. so to run 20 psi daily, u'd have to sleeve the block? thats where it gets expensive. im either considering LS/VTEC or LS/Turbo. not sure which would be best.

Aftermarket sleeves, forged rods and pistons, ARP head studs, a clutch that can hold up to the abuse, standalone engine management, lots of tuning.

Be prepared to spend a LOT of money.

Send your block to AEBS or Golden Eagle. You'd be in it aobut $10,000 doing it that way with a proper turbo kit and engine management.
