High 14's. The LS tranny will be very limiting in your times.

You never said nitrous in your original post. If you are going to be spraying, an LS/vtec with drags should be able to run at least 13's. If you aren't spraying, I am going to stick with my original estimate.

i am thinking that a built lsvtec should be faster on mator than my ls is with nitrous. then if i throw the nitro in on top it should run somewhere in the low to mid 13's, maybe faster with tires and supension upgrade.

you'd make serious power, but you are going to need to upgrade more than the head.

to make LS/V work you'll need to get intot eh bottom end and replace at least the rod bolts, and while your down there i'd seriosuly thing of just replacing everything.

if you were going turbo why did you go with type-r pistons? i'd watch out for detonation. what kind of head are you running? PR3 from a b16, a Type-r PR3 or a GSR's P72?

you make no sense.

why wouldnt you just put in forged pistons if you were going to break it down again. and the gsr transmission has shorter gears, if you had one why the hell would you get rid of it. something isnt adding up.
