Hey guys, I recently came across a fork in the road. I've had my Integra boosted for about a year now and I love it but I don't get to drive it as often since it has no a/c and my girl is usually with me and she needs her comforts. I started tearing it down so I can repaint the car and do a wire tuck.

I also own an RSX Type S and so does my girlfriend.. I've been looking at clubrsx.com and the power people make on the S on boost is nice! People are hitting 11's on daily full interior'd vehicles. If you were in my shoes would you scrap the boost on the ls and make it a all motor cruiser and boost the K or would you keep the old school beast and never feel like driving the S like me.

Selling either cars is not an option since I'm emotionally attached!

Last picture looks like the DA is leaking oil but that's from the oil changes I did being careless! =X

That is a major fork. I would probably keep running the LS and keep the S the same. A little bit further down the road you will get a better urge to boost the K.

That makes good sense.. The fact that KPro for 05-06 is about 1700 dollars is backing me away from that idea too!

I say keep the ls boosted. Since the work is already done. Well since you and your girl each own a type s boost one of the car. K-pro has a reflash, k-pro 02-04 is about $850, but if your car is a 05+ then you will have to get a 02-04 prb ecu with k-pro which will run you $1350.

Keep the DA boosted and just build the S for a nice daily.

the rsx trans are crap unless you get a rebuilt one. I went through 4 of them.
keep the DA and bash it, when you got some where far to drive take the s.
