since you are going boost in the future, any other little mods that you do would mostly any benifit N/A. I say that you save up, wait for a lil, and boost it. You will be much happier in the long run.

Go Budget Boost!!!!!!!!
Get a 13g turbo off of a n eclipse at a junk yard or something. (look it over make sure its good) Then get a diesel intercooler and cut it down to fit your car and get a new manifold and take your car somewhere to get piping and your set!! The exhaust shop i go to makes turbo piping so check exhaust shops!!
Tuner 6r
Looking 4 Hatch!!!!!!

Re: B16 hatch eg (ieatrice)
Here's your cure-all
P A T I E N C E
Save your money for what you really want, and when you get all this money together you'll be happier in the long run getting what you really wanted, cuz you didn't spend a smaller amount of money on somehting you didn't really want. You can just apply that money to what it is you are really looking to do...trust me on this, it's been 4 years in the making for me.

Re: B16 hatch eg (ieatrice)
i really want a new motor too, and i am torn between the new k20a2 and the b16a2. I like the k20a2 for the 6 spd and the power, but it is so expensive. The b16a2 is fairly cheap and puts out good numbers if you tune it right. what do you guys think is better?
sorry if i am stealing the thread

Re: B16 hatch eg (Davesgarage831)
Geez, $300? Are you serious? To put a B16 in my car, I've spent about $3500 so far, and I'm just getting started!!! When I do the B20 bottom end, that'll be about another $2500...kid, if you only want to spend 300 bucks, you need to look into modifying a bicycle. Now, if all you have to spend is $300...save it. Having money and wanting to spend money are 2 different things, I know, so with that 300 dollars, that gives you a nice start on saving up for some nice wheels. Wheels is a great place to start when you are modifying on a budget, cuz you can changed the look of the car, and make yourself a little happier with the fact that you are doing something. That's how I started to mod my first EG, and with the tires I got, it helped the performance of the car some, too. There, two birds with one stone...don't you agree?

this is the kind of ignorance that gives nitrous a bad name, guys knowing stupid guys that knew a retard that put an open bottle on his engine or something dumb and so it becomes "dangerous"
in the right hands of a person that takes the time to learn about nitrous and use it properly it is the Best Bang for the Buck Dollar for Dollar
search the net, learn about nitrous before you knock it and then decide

Sorry I didn't catch that you already had the motor, I thought you said you wanted to get one. In this case, I'd look at doing a set of CTR cams...I've seen 'em for sale for about $350 or so.

Re: B16 hatch eg (ntensehonda)
why you would talk per cam? do you buy them individually or something? and at 700 a pair, crower or zex stage 2 would be stronger and a better deal and still have money for spirngs and retainers
CTR cams = hype
