Default Help me plz!!!

I have a bunch of questions regarding my 94 integra ls. I got it from my 16th birthday, I want to tune it and have been slowly putting parts in it, so far I have a dc sport race headers, greddy catback exhaust, skunk2 racing intake manifold, and a AEM short ram air intake. Im kinda lost in what I should get last, it would be really helpful if anybody could give a some sort of direction on where I should go from here!!!!

It all depends on what you want from it...Look in the integra FAQ section, that should help you out.

Give us more direction as to what you want from your LS.
Think about your priorities and most importantly, your budget.
Are you looking for better handling or is straight-line speed more important?

To be decently quick (13 to 14-sec 1/4 mi), turbocharging is your most practical option. This is assuming your motor is in decent shape, but a leakdown and compression test are mandatory first steps.

All in all, budget about $3000... more if you're paying someone else to turn the wrenches.

With that said, go read the FAQ section on Forced Induction.

Ya that would be nice but don't you think dropping a turbo in it this soon would be too much for the engine?

:facepalm:

Look, I can understand that you'd ask vague questions because you don't know any better.
But if you keep asking contradictory questions because you want people to spoon-feed you the answers, that won't be tolerated here.

Do your share of the work.
Learn about turbochargers, how they function and what kind of stresses they put on an engine.

For now, though... I would recommend saving your money.
Focus on learning how to drive well.
The LS already has enough power to get a new driver into trouble.
