Turbo kit or a K20 swap?


I'm sure you're talking about a turbo, but don't be so vague...

I'd probably just get a kit dude. It's all there for you, ready to go. Make it easy on yourself. Unless you're going to go racing with your car, a kit is good enough...

A custom kit will probably be chaeper if you knwo what your doings. mine includeing the fuel system(emanage, all harneses, and RSX-S injectors) ran about $2200

Depends on what you want to deal with. Custom is a headache, but you get exactly what you want. The kit more or less drops right in.
I lost track of what I spent going custom, but I didn't have to pay for much labor along the way and I still blew close to 4 grand, then again, I didn't cheap on too much and I bought all new ****.
If you're worried about how to do it for as cheap as possible... boosting is probably not the best idea.

yeah all new stuff is gonan run i got all used pipeing, IC, Greddy BOV andHKS manifold. I had to make an intake pipe, some brackets for the IC, and new couplings. I was just suprised on how much an extra custom oil lines costs like $45. Once i get my electronic boost controller its gona be aorund $2400ish or so.

Everyone is giving different opinions, here's the way I interpreted it: I paid 3g for my Revhard kit off the shelf and my homeboy paid 5g for his custom made Full-Race setup.

No you can't.
