well im just saying. stock-stock LS can boost in upwards of 13psi while GSR can hardly safely boost 9psi.

Im sure you spent well over $4000 with all that stuff you have. But if you want to talk money.

GSR motor-->~$3000 + Drag 3 turbo ~$5500 + 9.0:1cr pistons/rods --> ~$6250 to boost as much as the LS can.

LS motor-->~$1500 + Drag 3 turbo ~$4000
not to mention the LS block has a slightly higher bore than the GSR can. why dont you add a new IM/TB, cammed, etc, CRV bottom end w/ custom 9.2-9.4:1cr pistons, sleeved micropolished crank etc. etc get it ready for boost. your spending about as much as a turbo GSR cost while the turbo GSR is still toodling around on 1.8L and your glorious VTEC, there IS indeed no replacement for displacement.

and no shit about the body kit with 18's me and my freinds talk shit about that more than we should.
