BTW i know somebody that has a hyundai... she still says to this day she was sorry that the dealer talked her into it. It goes to the shop once a month and its only an '02
Yeah, but their warranty (10 year/100K miles) kicks *** in comparison to other brands.

great advice XCM, but as for a good motor to start with, it depends on how much money you have to burn. the best would probably be to get a GSR motor (B18C1) but they are pretty expensive.

I did read the how it works thingy but I want to know yalls opinoins on what a good motor for turbo and nitrous is. I'm thinking of getting the prelude 2.2 vtec and turbo it and nitrous.

Thanks for the help guys but I have finally found out what I wanna do. I'm going to look for an the 94 Integra body style then I found a website that sells packages for engine swaps I'm going to take a Type S H22A Prelude Vtec motor which they said had 220 Hp at about 7-8 rpm and 150 something torque but this sounds like a nice motor to me I have already found forged internals for this motor my next step will probably be the usual bolt ons then a turbo and a nitrous kit. Hopefully when I get done with this car I will be able to show them other cars that I've raced some real power.

Thanks for all the help yall gave me.
Confused tuner.
