Default Quick question

Quick question, I am shooting for a low 12 second range civic/integra... prefrebly integra.. but my main concern is what do you guys think I should do to get to the 12's fastest... I was thinking about a H22 equipped civic or something, not to sure, what do you guys think is the fastest/best route to get to the 12's.

im gonna say boost
simply because in the long run it is the "best" route.
an all motor setup can net you low 12's, but it will be loud as balls among other things.

if u want to hits 12's on a daily driver or for the least amount of money...
personally i say build a b20vtec for boost.
you can check out this local forum from my island, alot of guys making ALOT of wheel horsepower, all from a CRV block+b16a head...and boost.
www.b20vtec.com

you can probably throw together a somewhat powerful and reliable turbo setup for under $1000 with the IC being the most expensive part. the motor itself should also be under $1500 total if you build it yourself.

Take it from me. You can say I want a 12 sec. car all day long, but it's a hard and very expensive road... good luck...
