MISSION: Go as fast as possible Safely (Not fuc"ing the engine up)

BUDGET: No more than 1500 US Dollars.

Car: Stock 1999 Civic SI B16A2

Thanks for the help.

be patient and piece it piece by piece. your turbo may sit in the garage for over a year, but, when all comes together, it will be worth it.

:werd: Putting together your own kit is the way to go. You can pretty much guarentee that you'll spend less $ doing it that way than buying a complete kit. And you'll also be able to pick the exact parts you want and not have to deal with any subpar parts.

no matter what i'd say start with a block swap
b18 a/b/c block b20 even.

go fast really doesn't tell us much at all even though you said safely do you want F/I N/A? where you want your power? is smog a issue? Gas milage?
Can you take the down time of swapping blocks?

Going fast with an NA engine is VERY expensive, and you cant really go that fast with a 1.6 liter. Smog or Gas milage is not an issue, I will be driving the car in Mexico and there are no inspection or rules "for a safe enviroment" whatsover.

When I say faster I mean 50+ WHP.

Then swap blocks and start parting a turbo kit together.

i agree 100%, you really need to start with a stronge base to build up from.

a DIY kit would be the way to go. i am reading a thread in another section in the forum and have learned a lot. once i can figure out all aspects of putting a turbo on (where, why, and what shit does), i will start my own kit. i am not going to rush into something i dont fully undersand (i wish i could comprehend it like the other turbo nuts do)

if you can wait and be paitent then put together the turbo kit but make sure you do it right.

if you want power now then maybe put in some ctr cams in which doesnt cost alot of money and you will feel the difference
