I got a '90 Integra 4-door B18b with 96000 miles. Wanting to build it up. Im wanting to get as much power out of it as possible. Time on money are not a problem. Looking for ideas and advice.

well i mean first you should start with the basic bolt on's like intake, header, exhaust...then you can go further with a better intake manifold and build the motor if you want to go all motor...you could also boost it or even put nitrous on it...

Turbo will give u the most by far when done right. you can make 500+ hp just depending how extensively built your motor is- as well as an awesome tune- which is absolutely necessary anyway so plan for that

the best power for the money is nitrous...but you need to understand the falls of nitrous

1) is a lot more hard on a motor than boost would
2) only get power when you activate it - not always there.

I had nitrous on a stock LS motor with 145K, drove it for 2 years on nitrous (75-100 shot wet) and took my quarter mile down from a 15.9 to a 14.3

and i sprayed a lot on it, like a lot lol...after 2 years the rings finally gave out

Far as pistons i would recommend cp. Rods i would use crower or eagle. If money is no option and u want as much power as possible i would go wit a stroker kit. Im currently building a b18 with a brian crower 2.2 kit. And for the turbo either precision or turbonetics. The size will depend on what power u want to achieve. As much as possible is not a hp goal. Everyone will tell u that.
