94 del sol w/50k b16 swap
Alright, the honda runs pretty good and everything, and i really am not looking to drag it or anything I just want something to zip around a little better than it does right now.
In a few years after college, my dad is going to actually help my do a complete engine compartment rebuild in which we will totally change out the engine parts to handle high psi on a turbo...so thats not an option for now.
I want to do the standard bolt-ons, and right now i've got a MSD ignition/Racing Clutch/Short Shifter/Magnaflow...I'll just go up to autozone and get piping and a K&N filter for a CAI that I'll cut myself...
I want to run nitrous, but I know absolutely NOTHING about it. Wet? Dry? Size?
I want about a 50 shot...but then again, I don't know if that would be safe on a stock engine.
Recommendations? I need to do this in the most cost efficient manner as I am on a limited budget.

i recommend against nitrous...quick way to blow up your motor if you get on it too much. Go turbo, and i know you said you don't want a rebuilt high boost motor now. Junk yard turbo, and piecing it together yourself. Many people have done this for around $1500-2000. Since you already have a b16, throw a turbo on it, get a good tune, and call it a day. Most b16 motors are safe up to 14 psi, but i'd boost it at anywhere from 8-12 psi. Whatever way you go, don't abuse it if you're trying to keep it in ok shape for a dd.

Alright bro...I guess that would be a safer choice. I can save up that, but I guess I had that american "get it now" mentality going on. I've got an uncle who can actually put it together with me I just don't want him to know I chose the honda over the z28 =X.

i'll be honest with you buddy, i'm not really intersested in buying your car...you're in cali. But from your avatar, it looks pretty sick. Give me a link or make a thread of your car. I'd like to see it. Just don't jack this thread.
