less than what you would pay to make half the power n/a
but realistically about 3K.
cams, intake, header, k-pro, intake manifold, will cost that or more. and you haven't even opened up the motor yet
Who are you?

15g is too small for your car.
i'd go with an spa turbo if it were me
@ eric. i'm going with an spa5000s and spa top mount manifold. or if i get a little more funds maybe a t4 flanged gt35r. but 1300 dollars for a turbo is friggin expensive. spa is half that with similar performance and journal bearing over ball which is a little more reliable for daily driving

I guess I figured it would be a decent match for a 2.0l 4, but you sure wouldn't make big power with it. I suppose the K series head can flow quite a bit more air than D and B heads.
But it is a soild journal bearing reliable turbo.

what's the point though?...1000 dollars + for a name at that point. spa will cost me about 500 for the same performance :-D

get a bigger motor or go with fi and you'll never say that again
but definitely get suspension brakes and tires before you go for more power....

Agreed, for an n/a 2.0l in a glorified economy car, its pretty darn good. I still miss my integra. Where Honda's shine is in the corners, where you can put its great suspension and high revving top end power to use. For the street and the stip, its pretty useless tho.

should give you some more pep, I prob. picked up 10-15hp in my teg with bolt-ons, what was nicer about the mods more than the power was the better throttle response and smoother/easier revving when you did need power. I do miss bombing the twisties in 3rd with the secondary butterflies wide open @ 6.5k RPM's, oh and a big cloud of VTEC smoke :lol
