hey guys
well im new to this forum, but i've been looking around abit.
i have a '98 integra

mods (im not sure tho, as all came pre-installed with the car i bought so i might miss something but thats about it):
greddy exhaust headers
2.5"piping
cold air intake
denso iridium spark plugs
ngk wires
Stage 2 Competition Clutch Kit (street series)
Competition Clutch Lightweight Steel Flywheel
(it has the p75 head)

thing is.. im looking forward to get around 200 whp
what do you guys think is the best (or cheapest ) way
i've been looking for turbo kits, camshafts, forged pistons, remaping and stuff
but i dont really know where to begin!
so if u guys could help me it would be really useful.

i also have been wondering the whp output of the car at the moment...
any ideas?

also if it is important... this is my daily driver..
thanks in advance guys!

Your car right now probably has around 120whp. 200whp can really only achieved by turbo (unless you just dump money into it). A nice turbo kit, set of crower 402t cams, adjustable cam gears, and an ems with a tune should get you there. For more reliability you could put forged pistons in. Reliability = more money.

i think turbo kit will be it... along with the cams & stuff..
i'll just wait to get enough money tho..

which turbo kits do you think are best bang for your buck?
cause im not rich :p

thanks for advice!

i would try to piece it together...

Nobody is rich but unfortunatley this is a hobby that costs some dough. Piecing it together is an option but know what you are looking for. Do not purchase an ebay turbo kit. Piping and wastegates are about the only good thing about them. I really like the deal Drag (http://www.dragturbokits.com) has going on now for one of their kits. Everything you needs except for the injectors and correct fuel managment system. Right now it comes with free shipping for 3g's. but like I said for it to be more reliable a really good tune and maybe some turbo cams are in order.

well said bro, aint no cheap hobby
im looking forward to buy the drag turbo kit.
seems pretty complete and good quality.
crower turbo cams are coming soon, already ordered them
but i still havent decided which injectors will work best
cause i'ma be honest
i dont really know shit about those things .
whats the diference or how does cc influence performance or wth
sorry im a noob in some things
thanks for helping!

You should be fine with rc 310cc injectors but if you wanted to go with rc 440's that would be fine. Stock injectors are 240cc (i think), so when you are pushing a lot more air through the motor you have to upgrade the injectors to be able to throw more gas in to get the right air/fuel ratio. They are about $300 bucks. Besides that you need a good tuning system. You could go with a hondata s200. The two closest tuners of hondata near you are in Huntington Beach. If you want to go with another tuner then ask him what he tunes with and what would be best.

I would piece together a kit. You can find alot of good deals on used stuff at http://www.homemadeturbo.com but the site is down for about 9 more hours

You can piece together one but make sure you have a full parts list of the stuff you need and don't go cheap on your turbo! It saves a little bit of cash that you can put toward your cams and tuning but it just takes a little bit longer.

you can run ching chang meow ebay turbo's just make sure you run a restrictor.

cams & cam gears arrived today at my p.o in us
but well aint no turbo yet so, time to store them up.. :p
i got the 402t's and cam gears
crower ftw!


i think i'll just go to huntington after getting the turbo kit job done,
cuz i dont really trust tuners here in mexico
luckily im in the border so no real deal.

im making up a list of all the turbo & i/c parts i need
when i finish it i'll post it here so you guys can tell me if i'm missing something

also
im thinking of getting lower comp forged pistons
so i can run a lil bit more boost
and for reliability issues
is that fine, or should i just stick to stock pistons and/or compression

If you the money than it doesnt hurt investing in forged internals

Forged internals are the way to go for boost. Stay with the same compression. Stock compression is good for boost. Did you get the valve spring kit with the crower cams? With forged internals you should be able to kick the psi up to 15 or so for your power setup. For daily driving dial it down to 7. Who is installing all of your parts?

haha money is actually an issue ;p
i have some savings tho


anyways about the crower cams
yes they came with the valve spring kit.

ok so stock piston compression is fine, right, & i should go for forged internals?

& on the whos installing
a friend of mine builds race-drag cars
so hes doing all the mechanichal stuff
(also i help him a little bit)
thing is he does not know about remaps ems and all that electronic stuff
im hoping to get hondata s200(in the us)
after i install the turbo & everything..
it wont be soon but o' well i can wait.

also...
where can i get that turbo pressure regulation thingy
or w/e it is called.

edit:
if anyone knows about a tuner workshop in the San Diego area
i would really appreciate if u told me where can i find one!

Stock compression is fine and if you want to put new pistons in then def. go with forged internals. With a hondata you can only get it tuned by a hondata dealer because they are equiped with the software. You can run the car untuned to where ever you are getting it tuned. Do not run it hard untuned or you will be sorry.

I think the "turbo pressure regulation thingy" you are refering to is the Fuel Pressure Regulator. It is located to the right of the far right injector on the intake manifold. There are two main brands of fpr's out there. There is an aem fpr which is a complete replacement of it, and there is also a B&M fpr which is a replacement of half of the stock regulator. It's up to you which one you want to go with.
