Hey, and welcome to Honda-tech. First off, what do u want out of your integra? Do you want to make it faster and do performance mods, or spend money on fashion and visual mods, I can tell you that if u want to go performance ur not ganna be able to go too far with the auto tranny, but still get some decent power for awhile, it's just that those auto trannies don't like to be driven hard alot.

You can never go wrong with some nice rims as long as their not 20s

Performance wise after you install an intake you should definitely upgrade the exhaust manifold. Make that baby exhale better..

man, that is the cleanest interior Ive ever seen. It looks flawless. Back to your question, The auto trans is going to be the major factor in deciding what you should do to the car. Unless you do a 5spd swap, major engine mods will be near pointless. Personally, If my car was that clean and had that straight of a body, I would keep most of the mods cosmetic (i.e. rims,coilovers,HID's, etc.) aside from the usual Intake,header,and exhaust that adds to the overall driving experience. When it comes down to it, it's your car and you should modify it the way you want to. cuz hey, it's your dime.

Don't listen to these guys. Lol. Put a B20 in that biotch, Skunk2 Intake Manifold, Skunk2 68MM throttle body, Skunk2 Catback Exhaust. You're car will be rippin. I know from first hand experience on my DA. AND YES ITS AN AUTOMATIC! You're tranny should be able to handle the B20 for a while, but you might want to think about building it up so it doesn't go on you. I believe Zex makes a tranny kit fot automatic LS trannys. I've had my B20 in my teg for almost 3000 miles and it runs great. Everything from the LS bolts right up to it. Just make sure you use the LS flex plate or else the starter won't bolt up. That was the only problem we really had with my swap. The thing with the Skunk2 Intake Manifold will be that you will be losing your cruise control, and your EGR valve. I could care less about the cruise control or the EGR Valve. Not having the EGR Valve will cause you to throw a CEL. Not to be worried. It can be bypassed. The only reason it's throwing the code is because your ECU is searching for it. Get some nice rims, and call it a day. 15"s or 16"s. I have my fake Spoons. Lol.

Theres my engine bay.


Theres my car. Hope I helped you out a lil.

The B16 tranny would help your car out. I agree on that one. Even if you do have a non-vtec motor.

b16 tranny makes you faster, but you don't feel it so much. with gears so close it is super smooth. i say save your money.
