I am looking to do some really big upgrades in the future for my DA
I dont know all that much about cars, just some basics...
I get about 500$ every paycheck to spend on my car... 90 integra hatch
I was wondering should I save for a turbo motor swap?
My goal is a a turbo, 200+whp, I been researching and people have put a turbo in a stock b18a and said its fine, but others say the internals will not be able to handle a turbo even at really low boost...
How much do would at least 200whp turbo engine cost? or should I just turbo my stock b18a?
As i said before I do [U]not[U] know that much about cars, but i really do want to learn more, and enjoy working on my car, and would do everything possible myself, besides welding and stuff like that.
Long post short, should I mod my b18a like crazy, and turbo it, or swap for a new motor, if so which one?
If modding, give me the huge list, and in order what goes first and last please! thanks
-I am buying exhaust this weekend, most likely 2 1/4 HKS, with b16 headers, and intake

if i were you i would go turbo...as long as your motor is healthy (just do a simple compression test for this), and as long as you get it tuned and dont use a fmu your motor will last a long time...and power wise...6psi will get you over 200whp
