I'm in a similar situation to you. From what ive been informed on a Stock integra LS you can run 12 psi. you are limited to 15psi because of the Stock sleeves which are very expensive to replace.
I'm not super knowledgable on Turbo, so if i say anything wrong, i apologize. The short ram i know you wont be able to use. as for the intake manifold...i think you can use that w/ a turbo kit. What i plan on doing w/ my 94 LS is Having a custom turbo kit installed w/ a test pipe w/ no catback. One thing with that is it will not pass emitions...so im not sure how to go around doing that.... but im sure there is a way to deal w/ it. I plan on running 12 psi on a daily driver. as long as my compression is okay(pistons are in good shape) i should be okay. fuel pump may have to be replaced but thats not a large investment. I would also suggest upgrading your clutch for the simple reason that you are going to be shifting at a much higher velocity and it will be harder on the car. also a larger brake pad might be needed. otherwise you should be okay. If you are against custom kits. rev hard has a pretty good kit. im not really looking into them anymore because im 99% sure im gonna do a custom set up to save myself some money and get more performance. if you need anything AIM=Billab2ong
