Im looking at turbo's for my 96 LS-vtech....i was looking at the greddy or the turbonetics....which is better? which would give me more horsepower and would be easier to maintain? price is no issue....i have plenty of money to spend im just trying to get the best of performance...

 

Wow......if price was no issue to me id be amazedwith my options. Well i dont really know which one would would give u better performance but my friend has a greddy turbo setup for his LS and he hasnt had any problems with it and he says its real easy to take care of but he had to do a lot of engine work before it could take a turbo........

 

Anything but the Greddy is the better option. The only reason I have the Greddy kit is for smog legality in California. A fully built turbo motor with a properly sized turbo is what you should be looking for since you have no monetary limits.

No offense, but if you can't spell vtec right, I don't think a turbo is such a good idea for you.

 

if money is no option piece together your own kit. but....

:werd:

 

Well if money is not a problem. I would get on the internet and find what you want. Make your own turbo kit. Get the turbo you want, the wastegate you want, BOV intercooler ext…….. Things I have had problems with my turbo and you might want to know about are, I had to configure my PCV to stop oil leaks. Fuel system, I now have to redo my fuel set up. I started with a FMU and a big fuel pump. Big no no, get a Hondata, or get your ECU chipped and use uberdata, and get bigger injectors. You can’t cut corners on this project. Take you time and do it right or you will be vary unhappy.

 

And before you boost, make damn sure your LS/VTEC motor is well built.

At an absolute minimum, we're talking using a modified GSR crank bearing girdle and GSR oil pump, along with upgraded rod-bolts. I'd add forged pistons and con-rods to the list as well.

 

my car is already turbo ready...i have forged pistons and everything the next step is turbo....i have been looking and i think i am going to piece my own together i think that will make me happy....and as for spelling v-tec right simple typo...not like i dont know how to spell a 4 letter acrostic...

 

No offence but it's V-TEC. Anyways.....

 

since when did honda added a dash between the V and the T in VTEC ?

 

Since I started writing it that way :db:
