man i did some search an all sort of different things im gettin

That's because it's been discussed MANY times. When you search, be a little more specific...

The fact that you get all sorts of different things means your particular question has been asked and answered before. Don't be afraid to read!

when i asked my mechanics they say that it is not really literaland doesnt make much sense. but wat do u all have to voice bout turboing the ve

What you're saying doesn't make much sense, either.

What do you mean they say that it is not really literal and doesn't make much sense?

i heard some rumor bout the ve vs de block in terms of turboing the de is stronger an holds out and the ve after ah while melts

dude just search around, the info is here....

The DE for the most part is stronger. As it has thicker rods and lower compression. The standard DE is 9.5:1 compression when the VE is 10.3:1 compression.

Now a VE can hold good power but, it has to be tuned right. I would not be scared to turbo a stock VE considering the decent tuning options that are now available.

The ve and DE share the same rods, except the sr16ve.
