The sad fact is, an automatic tranny will not be happy with a narrow powerband. So an N/A build seems largely pointless. And properly turbocharging an Integra requires a great deal of capital.

I'd say you're better off to leave the car alone - and preserve resale value by keeping up on maintenance. Learn to drive stick, and save your money for a manual tranny Integra, if not a more suitable performance car platform.

If you're absolutely dying to spend money on the car, then I'd look into a quality set of tires... Yokohama, Toyo, Kumho, etc.

And the thought of an old-school rodding "glasspack" muffler on an Integra makes me wince. :a: Say it ain't so.
