Turbo or N/A for my B16a2?
Ive got a 2000 honda civic SI and im kind of going toward adding a T3 turbo with a greddy intercooler in not sure what kind of bov or wastegate. Its a street car so im not looking to run 10s. 12s would be nice though and thats my goal for now i guess. i have around $2500 for the turbo setup and install (which is how much the shop told me they could do it all for). Im wondering if NA would be better for me.
I want to know which would be the best way to go since im kind of on a budget. I would most likely swapping internals, and i want to get the block sleeved if i am going to be running 12s on a turbo but dont know how much it is (if anyone could give me an estimate that would be great) what all does it take to get your car running 13's to mid 12s. how much work and money? i really dont even know what im trying to ask, i just heard going NA is pretty expensive but is better on your engine in the longrun. Please help me out.  by the way the only engine mods i have right now are a skunk2 intake manifold and a greddy evo exhuast.

I have the same question. I'm torn between a boosted b18 or an NA b16. I'm only looking to run 13s. My primary question is, which is more expensive, and which if better for the engine?

IF YOU TRY TO TUNE A NA B16 IT WILL PROB. COST MORE THAN A BOOSTED B18 SO I WOULD GO WITH THE B18 BUT A B16 IS JSUT AS GOOD
 IF YOUR LOOKING FOR PARTS GOTO http://www.modacar.com/car/Honda/Civic/ THEY HAVE LOTS OF PARTS FOR BOOSTED AND N/A ENGINES. OH AND THE B18 PARTS WOULD BE AT THE INTEGRA SECTION AT http://www.modacar.com/car/Acura/Integra/THIS IS FOR Thepeug

Thanks, man. I thought NA would probably be more expensive, depending on how fast you wanna go. All-motor is bad-ass, but I don't have the money.
