I think eveyone is right about the engine swaping instead of mods but my ? is where do u get a good new engine from that is fast i have never really looked into a engine swap i mean how much will a new faster engine be and what kind would i get also how much would it be 2 put in and i have no damn clue who would do it!

or

i could just get the AEM INTAKE , Greddy EX Turbo and the EXaust, DC Headers, Body kit
Sway bar , Shocks , clutch , flywheel , Rims

now the ? is which will be most $$ in the end the engine i would want would be a Integra Type R engine which i am wondering might that cost as much as the turbo and inner cooler?

i have not been able to do any mods yet but at the end of may i think im going to start

just give what you would do and prices and possibly sites for engines thanx

why do you want a B18C5 (integra type-r)?? you seem to be geared for turbo, b18c5 isnt worth the money if yer going turbo.
B18C5 is about $5000. so yeah you could get a GReddy turbo setup for probably a tiny bit cheaper total.
id swap, save, turbo. check the hybrid forum stickys....good stuff in there :)

If you want to save money and have a fast car, get a Integra LS engine and put on a turbo. The Ls engine has a lower compression and good torque.
