what are you using for EMS? Who tuned it? Who built it? Whats your fuel setup,whats the motor setup?

why lsv? should keep it a ls would been more safe because your make it high comp by puting vtec head on ls block with out safe tune. hope u use hondata

Because a vtec head stock for stock, ported for ported outflows the LS head and in that regard, even with higher compression, one can make better and more usable power with less boost.

yeah so it turned out i blew the head gasket cause i jumped timing. and i gently taped the intake valves on the pistons :/


but i took the head and got a full toda valve train
got it decked.
and now re assembling it.
getting tuned next week on neptune.
