CTR engine toubocharged?

I have decided on a CTR engine and I alredy am thinking about turbo charging it.

My questions are:#1- Can you turbo these engines cuz the vibe that I am getting is that the type R cams, bolth the CTR and the ITR, have too much over lap and are therefore not good for a turbo setup?

#2 - Would it be adviseable to do a LS/VTEC with a CTR head and using the CTR pistons in the bottom end therefore keeping the torq. high, and would this setup be good for turbo?

Decisions, Decisions

I personally think it’s a waste of money to buy an R engine and then turbocharge it. To turbo an R engine, the first thing you would do is tune out the valve overlap and lower the compression… which is pretty much the differenct between an R and everything else. Save your money and buy a cheaper engine and then spend on engine management stuff… and maybe some of those indiglo window squirters lol
