GSR swap? well thats not bad, but it you want a fast car, then you better just get a ZC and turbocharge the piss out of it.

dont know if they can handle a t4 but im using a mitsu 14b on my LS motor (im still in the process of the build...) you will need exhaust manifold (rev hard is good), intercooler (use a stock DSM sidemount for now), intercooler piping, oil lines, boost controller, BOV, and a turbo timer is a good idea too..... get your IC and turbo from a salvage yard or parts trader, something like that then go from there

i dont know if they can handle a t4 cuz im not sure what a t4 is but if you set your boost low (stock ls can take up to 12 but i dont recommend it) anyway if you set the boost at like 9 psi it shouldnt be a prob no matter what turbo you use

a t4 is quite large for any 1.6L, but it depends on if its an e, s, or whatever. t3 would be a good match for a 1.6, you could alot of boost on it and keep it in its effiecency range.

I'm gonna put a T-25 on my ZC with stock internals and run 7-8 boost. That's about as much as the ZC can handle stock. It's cheap and relatively east to install too (ZC that is).

You gonna buy this one so no one can sell it out from under you? Just playin man...good luck!!
