um yes and no, i liked the instant power from the S/C, but then the turbo gives you more kick top end.... soo 50/50 on it soo far...

still have to upgrade the exhaust to really tell you...

as for S/C's cheap... i can get brand new ones but ebay is good for 2nd's...

Just boost it till the stock bottom end pops!!
Or get a thicker headgasket for now.

Are the rods / crank the same in the ggsr and vr4? as for pistons, the stock vr4 ones aren't anything special..

If you wanted to do your bottom end, just buy a block, forge it and put it in. Stock VR4 engines nowadays are all pretty much tired and need a rebuild..

What boost are you running atm?

6psi, engine seems to be holding strong, usuall strange sounds from day 1 soo seems to be fine so far.... i'm fairly sure VR4/GGSR have the same internals minus the compression on the top of the VR4 piston and the oil squirter's and that cradle other then those.... identical....

i have a spare N/A engine that i might build up with stock VR4 internals, but get the insides coated in performance coatings and lighten the crank.... see how we go....
