Re: 1.5k To Spend on my Swap.....Where to get most HP....? (JDMFreak)
kits are a rip off
youre better off saving more money and doing it right the first time
or you can go ahead and "boost the **** out of it" and rebuild it...or possibly blow the motor to complete **** and you'll need another motor
doin it right is cheaper in the end

cams, springs, retainers, and some port and polish could give you some nice numbers. Boosting for 1.5 is half *** in my opinion. Look around in the Forced Induction fourm.

If you go turbo do it right, don't be ghetto and make 1500 work for a setup.
Think about hondata and a built head, assuming you already have an intake/header/exhaust
