All motor is the expensive way to go slow.
If it were me, I would boost it, and get a very good tune.
you can make more HP turbo than you can NA for the same amount put in..You say building a motor is expensive, however you would be surprised how fast the $$$ adds up when boosting, if you do it right anyway. How much hp are you looking to obtain??
boost it, you wont regret it
There is no such thing as a stock LSV. It's not a stock motor even though it is built with MOSTLY stock parts. The combos of heads and blocks alone will yield different results, that will yield different tolerances. Not to mention you should always upgrade the rod bolts, head bolts, water pump, and old pump, just to name a few. But these minor upgrades throw "stock" right out the window. You also have to take into consideration the age of donor parts. Some last longer than others simply because of age/mileage.thanks how much boost can u run in a stock ls/vtec?
thats the problem,,namebrand quality parts? you dont need name brand..Name brand quality parts? New? Installing yourself? Tuning? Depending on the route you go, it varies. Also if your looking at obtaining some big hp #'s and want to avoid blowing your sht up, your gonna have to build anyway.

Uh no. You can put together a nice turbo setup for $2k. N/a is the most expensive way to go and will yield you poor results.
