i want to put turbo on my type r but i have a gsr w/ jrsc and have the manifold should i go with the jrsc or turbo. my engine is the jdm one and i heard that the compression is a little higher then the usdm what can i do to lower it and what kind of turbo shouold i put on it? im kinda on a budget so what would be a cheap way?

 

The GSR JRSC won't even fit the Type-R head unless you swap heads. Turbo is the way to go if you want forced induction.

I am really not understanding what you are saying about the compression. Is that the GSR or Type R? Either way, the best way to lower compression is to put lower compression pistons in there. You could half-ass it and put a thicker head gasket on there but ultimately, that isn't a good option since the engine is now prone to as much detonation as before with the higher compression.

I say if you are on a budget, save your money and keep the Type-R stock.

 

i have the manifoldfor the type r from a friend. I also have jun stg. cams would that work with the turbo good. what kind of pistons

 

Cams and turbos don't mix. Keep the stock cams. Any aftermarket piston company that makes low compression pistons for your engine is fine.

So you are taking the JRSC off the GSR and putting it on the Type-R? :thinking:

 

well i might do that but i want to go turbo thats why. my gsr is fine with the charger and i like it. i figure since i already have the charger i wont need to spend money exccept for gaskets. i already have the manifold for the type r from my old type r motor on a civic
