alright, auto tranny's are hard to work with, but you could buy an edelbrock or greddy turbo kit, have a shop install it for you, get a professional tune, and truly be happy with your number. No, it's obviously not going to be 300 hp, but it'll be close to 200 and you won't be complaining. I don't know if you realize with a 300 whp FWD Civic is like, and neither do it, but unless you get some kinda traction control that thing will be rippin around with wheels spinning all the time. Truly, 200 would probably be okay, especially at your level of knowledge about turbocharging and Honda engines (i'm making this assumption due to your very first post, which asked from pretty noob questions)

thanks for this post, yes i know 300 is a bit steep, i think 250ish and id be happy

i was going to just get a brand new subie wrx or legacy specB, but id perfer to keep the cost under 10k and wait till my house is paid off

my main goal, fwd or rwd is:
1) 4cyl
2) over 250hp@wheels
3) N/A so i wont have to run 93 gas
4) can keep up with mustang gt's/f-bodies/ect
5) hella fun to drive and play around with on weekends
6) have a decent stero on it
7) not to rice it to hell, let it be handsome and decent, no huge *** body kit ect (as in i dont want this to be like anyone else looks wise)
8) under 10k total engine and all other mods
9) work on brakes/suspension as well


can a H22A fit inside of a honda accord wagon? wouldnt that be the best start? 200hp, then just do some bolt on's, great tune, and lower the weight on it a bit?

yes i could read all day on this, and i have been reading a lot of posts here, im learning a wee bit at a time

300 hp at the crank on a car that weighs 3700lbs and is RWD,and 300hp at the wheels on a car that weighs 2400lbs and is FWDis going to be a very different animal.

What makes you think that a high horsepower N/A car isn't going to need 91+ octane?

you'll need 91+ at the very least because you're looking at a larger fuel pump, larger injectors, larger cam lobes, higher comp. pistons. at least 11:1 or 12:1 comp. so how do you expect not to use premium at the pump?

be carefull if you intend on getting a 24 inch lcd with that rig, 8800 series cant properly display images onto about 4 models of 24 inchers

and the antec 900's are nice, but the all black on is
