Seriously though you will probably gain about 50whp just for swapping in a vtec head.
Stock for stock, the vtec head flows a lot more air. I still like to make torque and not have to rev the **** out of my motors to make that torque.

A turbo will give you more torque than your car will be able to handle. If you like torque get a RWD V8 with big fatty tires.

Plan for 300 on the boosted ls then when you get used to that slap the vtec head on it and get even more out of it.

then you would have to retune so if you want lsvtec turbo then put the head on first make sure it runs ok and then boost the bitch and call it a day.

If he would have had a stock TypeR head w/stock itr cams on their he probably would have made an extra 50-100whp and also had a better powerband.

Where was that thread arguing over LS/Type aRrr heads a few weeks back? The powerband of the Non Vtec vs the Vtec was sick..
