You do not have to build a motor in order to boost it. You do HAVE TO TUNE it.
This is why I never post on this side DragVa too much. ZeroMR is one of the guys who has been tuning and running LS motors since I've known him. LS/CRVTEC is not as bad as people think...... It just needs to be done right. So many people has been running this set-up with boost as well. If you want simple truth, search on honda-tech.com. You'll see enough of these type of set-up to read that will take up plenty of your time.....

Some people use the LS crank in place of their Type R or GSR just to give it more torque and will rev up to 9500 unbalanced. I take mine to 8900 all day long and don't worry bout it at all. LS turbo's are good too, but you can add an extra 50+ HP easy with a vtec head bolted on. For another 5-600 that's well worth the money.
