help with turbo sizing for LSVTEC...
 

well im in the market for a new turbo, think my current turbo is taking a ---- (60/63 T3, from a Thunderbird). so while its down i will be putting together my LSVTEC. B18A1 bottom end (stock PR4 pistons), B17A1 head and oil pump (ITR cams in the future), ARP headstuds and rod bolts, new MLS gasket... that should be about 9.5:1 compression...in my 88 HF

goals: 300whp....250tq....low 12s on street tires and full exhaust (3inch)

i have been reading lots of the old posts on Honda-Tech and the PTE SC34 is sounding like it may be the turbo for me? but i would like to hear what you guys think...

.63/.60 should be fine. just use whatever turbo Jeff was using on his LSVTEC. Follow his footstep and you wont be wrong. But then again he blew his LSVTEC motor up. haha ;D

well the car kinda ended up on the trailer a little early in the day...sure it would have done better, ---- the car got better and better every run...

anyway back to the subject... i know a couple of you have LSVTEC turbo's and a few planning them...
