Want to Boost, Opinions plz
2000 Civic Si with stock b16a
Basic bolt ons, I/H/E
now the question is, as the engine sits currently at 125,000KM, is it too late to boost?
im thinking about just stick with the stock internals and run low(6psi for DD)
I just want a little bit more power.
Suggestions please

Re: (integraRS-T)
you can use a stock headgasket if you want as well. arps are a good choice and like already said, if the compression checks out, boost it also i would go with a 3 inch turbo back exhaust if possible

IT really depends on the shop that's doing the compression test and the equipment they have...some will read 140-150...and others 190-200

greddy= waste of money IMO
its a very complete kit for a beginer, but not my cup of tea.
