then you go on to argue about how were talking about 12's when i replied to SOMEONE ELSE about how its easy to get a turbo'd d civic into 13's.
and going by your #'s up there of how much it'll cost to turbo/rebuild a dseries engine, if it cost that much they better be making well over 300whp if not 400, just like the engine from the link could handle, only they're using a pretty small turbo.

Ok well we are talking about what he did make not what he could. If he went with a larger turbo then u have more lag, and less drivability. So its really a toss up there.
U want me to spell it out for u????

-H22A engine, ECU, tranny, shifter cables, shifter assembly, resistor box... $1900
-HASPORT mount kit $650
-HASPORT modified rear tranny bracket $75
-Driveshaft shop hybrid stage one axles $400
-ECU OBD II to OBD I adapter (if needed) $220
-prelude throttle cable $20
-home modified Civic wiring harness
-home modified transmission tunnel
