Depends on what parts you are getting. And if you go with a 3" downpipe.

I have a 1993 Integra RS 5 speed.
Runs great. Just started to mod the car.
So far Wheels!!! A must have.
Also suspension kit from Tokico with new springs.

I also want to install a turbo on her but I was told by Nick at Jotech Motorsports, which is owned by Kenny Tran, that I would lose A/C period.

Anyone here have a 1993 RS with a Turbo and A/C?
