depend on your driving style...if u prefer instant acceleration,u might choose gsr turbo...but if u want to be low-profile and have something secret under your hood,u can go for MIVEC...hahaha...i'm quite bias to mivec actually...hehe:biggrin:

the mivec acceleration is better, GSR need to keep down shift for the boost.. is mivec part more expensive for GSR?

mivec cam is more expensive than gsr...t/body and intake for mivec also can be use for gsr engine,so consider same price...

I guess you can go for it because, only the original mivec halfcut already cost 9k. Can think about it la, haha.. And which turbine it using? TDO4 or TDO5?

i cant remember..
but surely not td04 or td05
plus if i wanna go for high boost
certainly i must change the turbo kit 1st..

that make me in dilemma rite now.
i can just find mivec head + evo 3 turbo kit ( my fren maybe wanna sell it to me cheap becoz he plan to upgrade to GT30) + piggyback + injector
