New to this site and couldnt figure out how to post, so I'm just using someones elses post. Anyways, I have a 93 integra ls and want to know the best way to get the best bang for the buck. Whether it be engine swap, turbo-charging, super-charging, adding flux capacitor...whatever the case maybe.

turbo would probably be the best bang for the buck. but an engine swap could prove to be much more reliable. but making your car run on trash would be awesome.

I agree, want it comes down to is how reliable your car is going to end up as. I'm going allmotor because i can always add nitrous if i wanted, but i just dont want to sit on the side of the highway with a turbo'd integra all ****ed up and shit, you know.

It depends on what you mean by bang for your buck and what your power goals are. If your not looking into spending a lot of money then basic bolt-ons would be the way to go. If your looking into big money then Forced Induction would be the obvious choice... Superchargers spread power widely over the power band and have no turbo lag. They only have a certain amount of boost you can run also though. For example the jrsc has a 6psi, 9spi, and 11psi pulley you can buy. If you go turbo theres different size turbos that will spool up faster than others etc... but one good thing about turbos is the possibilities are endless... you can build up your block and run as much boost as it can handle. If you go either way of F/I plan on spending big bucks because you will need tuning and you WILL run into problems along the way.

I would say get a new flux capacitor and some JDM blinker fluid.




















JK a turbo is always nice.
