my friend told me that an LS motor and a GSr head would be a good thing to start off with. would this be a good idea or what? this would go into a 2k civic sedan most likely if i don't buy hatch any suggestions would be helpful. I plan to go boost within the year of putting in the engine. thanks in advance -albert p.s - take a look at the name so try to put it in the most newbie terms as possible.. lol
for the serious and most "car competent" people, boosting a vtec motor (thats what the LS/GSR head will be...LS/VTEC) is the best way to go, more room for improvement. HOWEVER, if you dont know much about tuning, or you dont want to spend a lot of money tuning, i would stick with the non vtec turbo build up.
dont waist ur $$ on an LS/Vtec/Turbo, altho it would be a nice setup, u will have to build it like no tomorrow to get it to be working properly. if $$ is a problem, go LS/Turbo, if $$ isnt a problem go GSR/Turbo.
