SCing or Turboing... BOTH ARE FORCED INDUCTION... how can you give respect on one over the other?? true one is less maintainence than the other, but none the less, they are both FI

and yeah NA is more respectable and tight as f**k... i planned on going NA... but you gotta realize not everyone is a rich muther f**ker, NA is expensive as hell, and dont try to say the s**t is cheap either, because you can easily double the price on an NA setup compared to a turbo setup.

while it may be a waste of money, it is by no means a waste of time. I commute 80 f**kin miles every day, so id rather have some beat then extensive engine mods which i cant even use while im chillin in traffic

ill work on the motor side of things once im out of college or if this one blows up.

2000 Civic ex automatic. doing a b18c1 engine swap thats modified for Turbo use, AEM cold air intake, Apexi GT spec exhaust, Apexi GT headers, some kind of air suspension (just cuz ;)), GReedy Oil Cooler, Comptech Fuel pressor regulator and Fuel pump. im also gonna havea Boost Controllor, Turbo charger (tho i need to know what type i need for this engine.) and performance brakes. all NON performance thigs will likely include a body kit, new spoiler, "extra lighting", and of course a bettter sound system and in dash TV with Playstation 2 for games and DVDs while waiting for my Girlfriend. any opinions and ideas are appreciated. i also need to know of any important things i have to do with all those mods. besides get mad insuranc.e :P
Dont get a b18c1 just get a b16a2 for a lower price and turbo that. And let me go ahead and tell you do not set goals on your car 4 years into the future. 20 bucks says its goign to get wrecked or somethign else and screw your plans - I would know. Take it one step at a time.
