Sport Injection Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 GSR with Pistons and rods, Full-Race kit W/60-1 Turbocharger, Walbro FP/and 750's, Neptune or Hondata and a good tuner. Good for 600HP. Give or Take. Might need a few more things but not more than that. Pretty budget build for that kind of power IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNooPYjdm Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 alright ill look into a setup like this if i can get my hands on a gsr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Injection Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 Well it doesn't need to even be a GSR. It all depends on what your definition of fast is. I've got a friend who made 280hp with a bone stock B-16 with a log manifold and 57trim. Another friend made 301hp on a stock B16 with a Crack fest manifold and a Cummins FF turbo. Another Kid made 360hp stock GSR with a 60-1 on E85. Just depend what kinda numbers you want to chase down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
