im not sure what course to take for my jdm itr

if i go the NA route, i would go rocket m22x, smsp ss 4-2-1 header, ported IB IM, maxbore ported tb, injectors, tuning. this setup will cost me around 3k and probably get 200+whp. the benefit with going NA is less worries, i can keep my 2.5" exhaust setup

if i go the turbo route, i would go full-race stage 1 ac gt28rs and spend around 5k. however, id need to replace my exhaust for a 3" setup and buy other electronics.

if you in my position, what would you do and why?

 

NA.

 

How bout neither?
Why do you need to do anything at all?
Unless you just have money coming out of your ***, why not put your cash in something that will appreciate rather than depreciate?
Its all fun and games now, but one day you'll look back, and wish you had the money...

 

thats an option too

 

I'd go with da NA setup...less maintenance and more reliable. if you want to boost, i would just get another integra or wateva else and make dat a turbo project...
GoodLuck on your decision!

a gsr or ls is not a better candidate for turbo than a itr if tuned right.

next?

 

just go with a H/I/E and a good tune. Simple, cost effective and easy to change back to stock.

 

NA FTW.......

 

go NA

2.5" is good for hundreds of hp. if you want hp and your car to really move, turbo without a doubt. i wouldn't even waiste money just to get 200whp. i'd keep it stock or probably sell it.

 

This is my build as of funds come in.

Bottom End:
LA Sleeve (if i want to turbo in the future)
Forge Pistons 84mm
Forged Rods
Acl Bearings
Ion Hardend/Tear Drop Oil Dwells

Stock head just full pnp head/IM port matched 62mm taper bore stock tb.

JDM Header
Customs SMS-P 400 Cell CA ODB2 Cat and 2.5 Exhaust

Running on S300. Hopefully hit 220whp and 180tq. Not a big build but it will do.
