After about 2 years of sitting I have got my hatch back on the road. It is a 89 civic hatchback with a LS swap. The car sits pretty much stock, stock air box, stock exhaust, etc. It has been a great motor, but i'm looking to get more power, this is of course where a turbo comes in. I don't have a ton of disposable income to put into this car, but I want more out of it. Turbo parts for the b series motors are definatly more expensive, and not as plentiful as with d series motors. I have been debating on whether or not to jump back to a d series motor. I have local junkyards with HF manifolds, turbos, etc. With all this said, I just want a fast fun car without dropping lots of $$$


<----cheap ***

thanks for the input in advance

 

I should keep the LS

 

I think both engine are great, but if you are looking for something like a budget build sohc is definatley they way, parts are abundant and cheap.

What is a good log style manifold that is reasonable cheap, but still good?
