you'll need to almost triple your budget to have a fully built LS + turbo.
$2500 will just barely put a stock b16a in your hatch.

2500? dude you need to look into the prices alot more.
that will barley do an engine swap (ls or b16)
your looking at another 2000-4000$ to boost it

yeah 2500 is just barely enough for a b16A, the LS is cheaper ive seen em as cheap as like 1300 from jdmhondaparts.com i think that was the website name. now if u wanna turbo expect to add another 3-4g's for a kit and of course if u gonna turbo i advice that u get some kind of engine management also to properly tune your engine. more money...the b18b LS is ideal for turbocharging cuz it runs a lower compression piston, tranny ratios are taller enabling u to stay in gear longer so u can boost quicker. and its non vtec so u won't have to hassle with vtec issues with a turbocharger.
