Default turbo setup is it worth it??????

I have a d15b1 and i have changed it from dpfi to mpfi and i was wondering if it would be worth it to turbo it or just do the b16a swap first.

go ahead start piecing the kit together and hold on to it.if your builing your own kit its going to take about a month to gather every thing anyways.then do the swap and go turbo later.thats what im doing if i can ever get my car close to passing a ref test.as soon as i pass im throwing the turbo setup on it.

You should make 2 topics asking the same question.

You could buy a cheap nitrous kit, usually 200-300 bucks and give that engine a good farewell when your ready to swap.
