i have a lsvtec motor and a gsr motor both with gsr trannys i have a 99 civic shell that i wna put it into just throwin it out thier to see what yall thinks better to build. if i do a turbo build which motor because of compression will i do better with?

My preference would be a GSR, however a properly assembled LS-VTEC would probably be quicker than a stock B18C1. Add boost and both are great powerplants, but again I'd rather have a B18C1. I guess I"m just a simpleton.

ls 9.2:1

gsr 10:1

 

for turbo, you want lower compression...

 

a stock gsr motor can handle a bit more psi than ls

 

 

well assuming the ls/vtec is a stock ls block the the comp will be low. I would go with the gsr motor even for boost. 10:1 comp is not bad for turbo just back the timing off. Gsr engine is built for higher revs. It has stronger and heavier rods and a better rod ratio. Also has a main cap girdle.

i'd take a GSR motor over an LS motor even if you don't boost it.

idn where u guys r from but im from boston green beans got the fastest hatch around. talk all the crap u want but none of yall can keep up

 

Well, since it's a guy you know (and not you)....then we don't have to keep up to compare....we only need to know someone who can keep up. I promise you that I know plenty that could leave green bean sitting on the side of his plate. Hell half the fast cars I know around here are running 10.00 or quicker and about 75% are daily driven street cars.

 

Oh.....and the guys I know that are fast don't have to go around living with a nickname like green bean.
