Could you do us all a favor and read up on these subjects. Even when your reading other peoples comments they are able to spell VTEC right, its not hard...You really need to do some research on the setup that you want, and what you want it for. LS/VTEC you will make very good horsepower but will sacrifice torque. The VTEC head flows more then the B18A/B setup you have. What everyone has stated thus far is true, and you can't just slap a head on and call it a day, there are conversion kits that can be had. Then you will need a new ECU and everything else mentioned. Turbo the B18 and you will see good gains, and good torque.

 

u'll be ok if u run low boost

 

bump

 

dont let the haters bring you down. i had an lsvtec turbo with stock rods (arp rodbolts), rs machine b16a pistons, arp headstuds, and a thick cometic head gasket. it was built for all motor at the beginning then i put the cometic on it and an ebay t3/t4. my guess is about 10.2:1 comp ratio from the 11.5:1 that it was with a stock HG.

the car makes about 370 whp on 15 psi. and it still running strong. i traded it to a friend for a motorcycle and he daily drives the car.

 

it was a nice car, very clean engine bay and I love your valve cover...

 

that ---- looks clean and i know you cant just put it on i know you have to do the convention and get all the good stuff i am going to build the engine from the bottom up with new every thing so i have done my research

 

cromed out valve cover nice.

 

dooooooooooooooooooo it!

 

higher CR will keep yr low end, and b effective with boost with proper tuning, but persoanlly id stay no-tec and boost it...

 

ls-vtec turbos are a lot of fun! ive got one in my del sol running 18psi. with just pistons and rods.
