Default A pointer in the right direction, (newbie here)

Hi people, i've had my Integra for nearly a year now and have loved every minute of driving.

I normally only keep my cars for 6 months but cannot part with this car.

It's the 1st Honda i've ever owned and took a risk buying it because i didn't have a clue about Honda's but wanted a DC2 since i was a nipper.

My previous cars have been Ford Fiesta XR2i, Renault 5 GT Turbo, BMW E36 325i and none come close to the feeling i get when i drive my Teg.

Anyway, i want to Turbo her, but need to know the steps to take, is there anything anywhere that i can find what i need, and th money it's going to cost??

Thanks ppl, any help would be much appreciated. Lee.

Keep it at 275 whp (7-8 psi or so) if you want the stock internals to survive any length of time in a Turbo ITR. The FI forum should also be a good resource for you.

If you plan on buying your turbo kit from the US, the pound to dollar exchange is very favorable for you right now.
