There hasn't been any info yet.

Answer these questions:

How much money do you have to spend?
How fast do you want to go?
How much work do you want to put into the car?
How often do you feel like fixing the car?

Figure that out, and we can recommend a setup.

Generally when someone asks you how much money you want to spend, they expect a response in the form of a dollar amount. You need to quantify how fast you want to go and how much you want to spend. As in give some numbers in terms of dollar amounts, 1/4 mile times, horsepower, etc.

Here's the steps you need to take.

1) Go find a shady friend.
2) Scope out and steal an Integra GS-R (make sure it's real)
3) Swap the B18c into your Teg
4) With the money you saved by being a little b!tch and stealing the engine, do some suspension work.
Walla!

Or you can do what the remaining 70% of the Import World does and just commit insurance fraud and use that money to get what you want done.

/me shakes his head.
I guess those are the two things I hate about the "import lyfe"
lol.

I want to get over 180 hp and i guess $3000. I like to find roads with tons of curves, and i like to go fast though them. Thats why i totaled my first car. I generally race in 1/4 mile but what ever the road im on and if someone pulls up beside me and asks to race i will run with em.

You don't need $3000 to get over 180hp. Put a 75 shot of nitrous on your car and spend $500.00
=]

If you want a new engine, and you are shooting for 180hp, toss a GS-R engine, apexi ws catback exhaust, some comptech header or something, pullies, and a 60 shot of nitrous.

That'll give you some good numbers.
