Engine swap?
Ok this is the deal I just posted about a turbo, however I left out that my 97 ls has 123,000 miles on it!!! so I was wondering if it would be better just to put a diferent engine in, like a b20 and just forget about the turbo. any suggestions?

if it were my car. i would pull the engine and rebuild it to handle boost. then you wouldnt have to worry about the amount of miles(if it is built right).
B20's are cool, but i like things i can rev the piss out of.

You could always go up to a H-Series motor.
Take an H22 and stroke it to 2.4 liters....:naughty:

One of the members on this board (DB7 2.0) is running a b20 Integra; you may want to PM him for some info. Shingo

Decent suspension components easily correct the understeer problems caused by the added weight of the h22 and the way the motor sits.
H22 = :thumbup:
