Rep Power: 0 i went ahead and got the ball bering upgraded turbo. greddy says 100 to 125 with proper tuning and the basic turbo, its 125 to 160 for the bigger bb turbo and good tuning. that would set me at 280 t0 320 whp, but im not guna give my hopes up. i would be happy with 250hp.

Rep Power: 0 yea i was in the market for the hatch model but this just poped up and for a really cheap price too. and it was compleatly stock when i got it. i was hopen to have the fastes car at school but clint has that sti now, i have been told that i will be able to beat him if i make250 or more, i guess its that power to wait ratio.

i saw the fmic, and i believe my tmic is bigger
and you go ahead and try and get the 280- 320 whp, but that **** aint happenin' that freakin k20a2 power right there man. but **** that would be the **** if you did get it, and i also will not be riding with you any more once you get boost, you scare me enough as it is. but yeah the turbo'd Si is def gona be the shizzle, just hope the motor dont go boom...

well, lets do some simple math/physics.
my car weighs more, and it has 300hp to the crank. now put that through to all four wheels and you net somewhere around 230+awhp. now put this against a car that weighs less and has around 250hp to the front wheels means that you will beat me highway, but forget about it from a stop, because awd pwns j00 and your first through third gear is gone.
this also depends on the tune of your car. with ****in emanage forget about high hp numbers, if you want power get hondata, you know this. but still it doesnt matter how much hp you have if you motor cant handle it. anywho wish you the best of luck. and i will be at your house tomorrow to look at the tai boe kit

Rep Power: 0 i have plans to get the hondata s100 with boost option, but i am running out of funds. i have every thing but thet turbo it self bucause i optied for the bb turbo they wanted a huge shipping charge to send it all to gather. so i had pujan get the turbo from aerospeed in dallas. and no its not a aerospeed turbo its a greddy, aero speed carries other products becides there own brand. i am waiting for the frog eyes and guages. after that i will start on it. i have the fmic and pipeing on and the turbo timer, but thats as far as i got.

Rep Power: 0 well i had a talk with aerospeed, they told me that garret dose not stock turbos that when you place a order that they make it then ship it to them then it will go out the the coustomer. i was told it should be in next week. but i thimnk its just a big bunch of bull **** to buy them more time. but i have been known to be wrong.

Rep Power: 0 why not keep the civ, and freakin have more money to boost it... or swap, nikkua. no one expects the 7thgen, plus imo it looks way better than the crx, del slow or a hatchback.

It needs to be in my price range. I might buy a 98 Integra with 400 hp to the wheels with a built motor and GReddy turbo, but I am not sure, they are only asking $9,500 and my dad might pay half of whatever I buy so that could be my car.
