just throw a nice turbo kit on it.. then dont get boost happy and run like 8 lbs and u will be good to go my boys has been runnin a greddy kit on his 00 si and has had it for 18 months and it still runs strong.. ohh he put down 285.

Sounds like you want a smaller turbo so you can keep most of your power in the lower revs. Good idea for a street car

Although, like luvmihatch's friend puts down that much power...that's pretty decent. How much are you looking to spend?

Oh, and i guess i should have said boost is a good way to get that power, like mentioned.

Damn luvmihatch, you need to slow down. You've got some good information sometimes, but you need to get the spelling right, or we can't understand what your saying dude!

Anywho, yes, a good little turbo setup would be a good bet for bringing up the torque of your little B16, and making it a fun and quick drive.

sry english is not my first launguage... my b . and ok i will start lookin when i type that would help to.. and yes i agree 100% smaller turbos on stock motors make it more fun...

Blue00Si

Inlinepro cast stainless manifold is what I run in mine and I was able to keep my AC.
Howver, I ditched the AC a few weeks ago to make it easier on the welder to fab up my 3" downpipe.

yeah all the cars that we boost and try to use the ac turbo maifolds work but as said the down pipe.. waste gate pipings etc.. some thing will allways get in the way.... honestly just ditch the ac its only hot for a few months. lol
