I need alot of help.

Ok a couple weeks ago I got my first car a 01 Acura Integra with 77k miles on it. Well I hear people say all diffrent things. The car is all stock,and the color is silver. Ok now to what I need help with what do you guys think I should get to improve my powers at the wheels? I hear people talking about diffrent engines and all that I dont know much about cars and thats why I ne ed help my aol is adam50113 PLEASE HELP. Does this link work well if it does this is my carhttp://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c207/adam50113/iA01161_1.jpg.

what model is it? Auto or Manual? Budget??

It's automatic. There is no budget but it might take me a while to get money I work 40 hours a week at a grocery store. Were should it say what model it is?

Maharazzi OMFG YOOU LIVE IN FARGO???? WHEN I GRADUATE IM MOVING THERE TO GO TO UND. MUAWHWHAHAHAHAH

It doesn't really say what model it is unless it is a type R or a GSR. But what you have is a rs,gs, or ls integra because the GSRs and TypeR's never came with an automatic. They all have the same 1.8 liter (b18) engine with ~140 hp. Those rims are usually on an ls. Someone more experienced with tegs here might be able to tell you more. But that is basically what you have.

You can do a bunch of bolt on stuff to increase the power of the car, but the major upgrades are costly. Intake/header/exhaust (basic boltons) will give it that extra kick and probably make it a lot more fun to drive. I would recommend getting a manual transmission, but that's also a relatively costly swap. If you are on a limited budget, then do the boltons, and perhaps some nice suspension work. That will make the car a hoot to drive. But it all depends on how much money you want to spend and what you want out of the car. Goodluck, and nice looking car. (those tires look very grippy)

Make sure you buy quality parts too, nothing cheap or half-ass or you will regret it later. If you search you'll be able to find some good recommendations and setups

Allright I just worked 25 hours with no sleeeeeep im so tired. Yes the tires grip the road so much I try to do donuts and I cant I drove 40 mph and turned and put my e brake on and I only did one rotation :( well anyway I was trying to find a turbo so now I look for a turbo for a b18 1.8l? and it thats right im going to buy a turbo Intake, greddy muffler I dunno Im wanting to spend 10,000 in upgradesa so if anyone with more expirince knows whats best to but please tell me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

if droping 10K go buy a real car.

i agree that you should save your money for now....if you're going to go to college, save the money for that and just drive around in your Acura.....

Loans are for collage, I was looking at www.greddy.com for a turbo for my car right, Well it sais that there is a turbo for a 1994-2000 integra MINES A 2001 does that one year make any diffrence? I think im going to call them I got the number. And if I spend like $5,000 at one place is that normal becuase I hear greddy has really good parts.

Uncle Ben's

don't drop all that money into an auto. manuals are cheaper anyway and they'll give you much better performance. Besides what are you planning on doing with this car? Drag? If you are definently drop this one and go stick.

DIY if anything.....cheaper and better not to mention more satisfying....

No no right now I know people that street race theres no track around here so yea I guess thats all I can do. I just want more HP. And the reson I didnt get a manual is becusae first the one there had 345,768 miles on it, and I dont know how to drive it.

Ok . Listen to me. It is a nice looking car and all, but PLEASE don't spend money on it. I know you really want to but you will regret it in a year or two. I have an automatic Civic and while I love how it looks and drives, its still an auto, and still needs a ton of work to make it fast. I have spent about $7500 total on my Civic, which could have gotten me an Eclipse GSX or at least a turbo 5spd hatch w/GSR. Don't waste your money on this Integra. The only way to get real power from it is to either build the motor NA, or turbo it (or swap) So just keep saving and you wont regret it.

:1: to that......save it for a car that's a better platform.....

Basically Dude, If You Have An Automatic Tranny And You Are On A Fixed Income, I Would Recommend That You Really Think Twice About Taking Your Car Out Of Spec With Aftermaket Parts That May Compromise The Reliablitiy Of Your Engine In The Long Run. As Was Already Mentioned In Some Of The Other Threads There Are A Host Of Things Out There That Will Give Your More Power, However It Should Be Recognized That The Honda Engineers Are Highly Trained Speciallist That Manufacture The Cars To Operate Under A Variety Of Circumstances Reliably, Hence By Bolting On Parts That Do Not Comply With Factory Specs, You Run The Risk Of Damageing Other Parts. For Instance If You Boost Your Hp Through Headers, Intakes, Hotter Cams And So Forth, What Effect With That Have On Your Automatic Transaxle In The Long Run, Or How About Gas Mileage, And Smog Inspection And So Forth. In Other Words The Fixed Income Is An Issue To Consider When Modding Your Car.
