Default My new toy - Need some advise!

Here she is in all her glory! Nearly mint body and interior. Hard to believe she is a 90. Droppin in a JDM B20b w/ b16 tranny.

If you want to DD with reliability, don't go much over 300. Once you get much higher, it's hard to have it be reliable.

Good luck, and maybe post some questions in the FI section

Youre going to have to get a new clutch and injectors to support more power. With some more headwork, Im sure around 350whp daily shouldnt be a problem.

Should be able to pull off close to 300 before you need to upgrade to bigger injectors. I'm running on close to that with the same ones.

Remember, the tune will be the most important thing. Don't skimp on that.

Nice set up already...But I'm sure you'll be happier with a built GSR swap.

And in the end you are still driving a car that is at least 14 years old and looks like ***

At least it'll be decently quick, maybe.

That's your subjective opinion, and one that others don't necessarily share, especially in an Integra forum. It's his car, and he obviously likes it. He didn't request commentary on its age or aesthetics.

A-1 Transmission in Madison, WI did mine for me. Cost me about $300. I have a family friend working there (did it for just the cost of parts etc).

And actually there is no such thing as an A1 tranny. You either meant Y1, S1, J1 or a YS1.
