Ls Turbo?

OK check it I have a 92 Civic HB and I have a 94 LS motor. I want to do a Hybrid Turbo....a T3/T4 Garett, or take a turbo off of a Mitsubishi Starion or Eagle Talon...What do you guys think...I don't have enough money for a Turbo Kit so I want to do a custom turbo setup...what do you think is the best way and if anybody has done this please let me know how it works?

Re:Ls Turbo?

i've said it before and i'll say it again!!!! The only 2 turbo's i would through on any B18 motor would be a Garrett T3 Super 60 or a T3/T4!! NOTHING LESS!!! A mistubishi turbo...

if you like fast spool and loss of power at top end, go for it! but i like my power to be pulling hard all the way to redline!!! even if there is a bit of lag...

Re:Ls Turbo?

on a d-series, probably but a b18 with a stock subaru turbo...i dont think so! those turbo's are small from what i have seen and heard. i'd just stick with a big Garrett/AiResearch!

The wrx turbo is small. Yeah, it boosts 14lbs, but the size of it is what matters. 14psi will respond differently in different turbo's. I think the wrx turbo is too small for the wrx. IMO

Re:Ls Turbo?

i agree with greddycrx, i have a 60/63 on my LS and i love it, it pulls hard. anything smaller would be gay as hell on an LS...
