max boost for GSR
 
I'm not to familiar with the GSR and its compression ratio, so how much boost can it handle safely? And yes of course, it would be fully tuned.

You cant say 12 to 15, what if this guy is running a huge T4 turbo? That could be a shitload of power. PSI doesn't mean much, you need to think about power.

You can run around 300whp safely everyday and a little more at the track.

Wrong, 21 psi daily and 36 psi at the track, but only use 87 octane. I personally use a 50/50 mix of gas and oil.

Does it take 3 times to ask a question to possibly get a serious answer or what? I'm not a noob , I've only delt with one GSR NA powerd civic. To clarify a little better, I will be using a t3/t4 63/63 ( unless anyone has preference of another turbo) I don't give out shitty info, so please don't give any back. Thanx.

I answered your question seriously. People have made a lot of power on stock GSR motors, but 300whp daily is a safe bet. Our NW tuner Dave Lee runs like 350whp daily on a GSR.

Sinister was just joking...

63/63 ?

maybe he meant .63/.60? If he really did mean a .63/.63, I would like to see it :D

Re: max boost for GSR
 
sorry the 63/63 was supposed to be 63/60. And I understand the joking but I just need to know what to set the boost at. I'm also building an ls (pstons,con rods etc). What would be better to run the built ls (evuntually ls/vtec) or use the GSR for myself?

Re: max boost for GSR
 
I'd go with the GSR and just build that.
