I got a really good deal on a full b16 swap (trans/engine/axles) and had a DA shell so I placed it into the DA with the use of Hasport mounts + Hydro to Cable conversion setup. Now I'm running a socketed p28 on a b16 (99 civic si) base-map and think I definitely need some more power. I'm wanting to put together a nice turbo setup for this car but I'm not sure how fast the car will end up being. I'd like to keep it to a little under 2.5k spent (used products is fine) and that's on the essentials (FMIC/Turbo/Manifold/Wastegate/BoV/Pipes).

If anyone has any advice on this setup (b16 turbo) in a 93 DA then please shed some light on this matter. I'm being told buy an LS swap and put back in it then turbo that... but that's going to cost me more money than just turbocharging the b16 and the b16 only has about 72K miles on it. So it's still fresh.

Also if ANYONE knows somebody or has had one of these setups themselves please let me know what kinda expectations to have for this setup? I guess what I'm asking is in the DA is this going to be a potent enough setup for me to achieve high 13's from it without going into the engine?



Lemme know what you guys think,
Thanks,
John
