ok people its my 1st time posting on ht and i want more power out of my car and was wondering if i should turbo my stock dx motor non vtec or should i get a d16y8 ....?

 

money is not a big deal but i dont really want to make crazy power thats i want to stay with the single cam and build that

 

If your current motor is a b7, I'd definitely do a full y8 swap - it's only about $600.

If your current motor is a y7, I'd definitely convert it to a y8 - it costs about $200 (head, IM, ECU).

 

im not sure its just a stock dx motor in a 96 hatch

Only if you want more than 220whp. If not, then save your money.
