Expectations

[EnJoiThaRex]

I let someone else take over, I hve no experience w/ turbo vehicles or tuning so this is as far as i can help you with

[Kerihowell]

Thanks for you fast response...I have 2yrs left in sch & because of my financially decrepit state, lol ! medical school is putting a strain on me, I will only be able to save 1K in 1year. By that time I'll be on my way out of school & will be able to buy a Mugen RR (like one of my friends after he graduated, but I'd boost it though. All wishful thinking - keeps me afloat as a performance enthusiast) or a Subaru STi or a Mitsubishi Evolution.

I'm wondering if I can just get the chiped P28 ecu from those sources I mentioned & just have a tuner tune it therefore replacing their chip. Afterall it's the same OBD1 chipped ecu.

Pretty much my best option is to find the best option with $1800

300hp NA is expensive as fuck and unreliable.


300hp on a boost out of a b20 is cheap(er) and reliable(once you get new sleeves)

Oh its relable, just not streetable

OP: I think with $1800 though you need to come up witha new goal.

the b20's sleeves are paper thin and weak as fuck.

[96civic3door]

They are not that thin

Honestly, i cant see throwing anything less than 3k turbo conversion, there was more things i left out.

IMO, i would save that 1800 or put it towards wheels, suspension, brakes..etc. Thats another important part in all builds

[EnJoiThaRex]

yeah i read its the b23 blocks you shouldn't sleeve

but the b20 was ok..i guess

or he could sell his honda, add that to the $1800 and go get something else.

check it.

$2200 (easy sell for a 95 teg, presuming its in good shape) + $1800 (he already has) = 1992 Toyota MR2 Turbo

[mattliston]

The MR2 styling looks like a mix of a del sol and a ford probe. much faster though, DO IT

[EnJoiThaRex]

mm more like mini ferrari..
