Ok guys i am stuck with my project with Integra need you help. This is my first Car (have had 2) First one i hated and this is actually my first car i love and have a soft spot for. I love the Infinity G35, but at this point so sick of car payments that i just want it gone. Plus G35 is VERY nice, but i just love my Integra so much i can't ditch her. I would be doing Auto cross only no Track/racing. So some things i KNOW i am going to do is add nice Leather seats and seat warmers (Love these things), Some Rims and The lip on the front, Some nice white faced gages. Then some upgradded sway bars and strut bars for auto cross. I like how quick the Infinity G35 is 0-60 in about 6.8 sec with a auto. Well since i hit traffic everyday, i want to Keep my auto but make it like the infinity as far as speed, more of a blast. Goal is 250 HP. But it gets better i Live in Freaking Cali (Damn smog laws ARGH) I do have a smog place that will actually pass me with a turbo/supercharger Carb number. So this is what i am thinking.

Option one: Upgraded Cams Have to be Stage one (Stage 2 or more will not pass smog) (Extra 10 i figure according to Crower 14-15)
Get some P30 Pistons that will bump it to 11.1 compression ratio (Heard another 10-15 HP and gain in torque here.)

Call it a day and give up. That would be about 150HP 125 with H/I/E +rest

Would that even be worth the work? Would extra 30 HP be noticeable?

Option two: Upgraded cams (Stage 1), and a Jackson Racing Supercharger for Integra LS. according to dyno its 160HP and 140 Torque.

Total would be about 170HP but for about 2,500 dollars for a extra 45 HP is ALOT of money not even worth it i think. Acceleration time would be faster though. About 7.3 Seconds (About a sec less maybe more)

Option 3: Most expensive Save up for a GSR (180HP) engine put that in the Integra w Auto i figure it will work? Since most Honda's are Auto and have Vtec.

Then some Camshafts (Stage 1), then Supercharge it. This would yield the most HP compared to any other setup. Then new I/E/H

160 (Plus 10 for I/H/E) +10 (Cams)+(Plus 55HP Supercharged)=235

Then Jackson racing supercharger upgrade looks good, Looks easy enough to Change back for Smog test Thats another 23HP If its only 10% upgrade (Claims 10-15%)

Boost Upgrade includes: Boost Upgrade Crank Pulley, Belt, JR Boost Timing Controller, JR Fuel Pump, 160 degree Thermostat, Spark Plugs, and Instructions.

So total for this would be 258 According to them they tested out a GSR Supercharged without the upgrade Boost kit and it did

'95 completely stock GSR tested by Motor Trend in Oct. '98 ran a 0-60 of 5.7 seconds and 1/4 mile in 14.2 seconds. Auto is usually .5 seconds slower (At least on Integra Auto LS vs Manuel) But lets say 1 sec.

0-60 In 6.7 Sec Integra.. (sounds really good) And that doesn't include upgrade kit or I/H/E

Option 4: Forget it, Just do basic Stuff for auto Leather seats, strut bars, sway bars

and rims I asked my next door neighbor about his Turbo on this Car and he said its

auto but still is quick and has no issues with it..

Sorry for long post any options or suggestions?


Manuel is not possible that is why i am asking with auto.
Please no Manual flaming

Oh ya forgot to say was going to Do Ls-Vtec but wouldn't pass Cali Visual inspection

 

sorry man but i don't have the patience to read all that.....

try condensing that novel into one concise paragraph without any extra discussion....focus on where you're at now, and where you want to be, and then we can provide you with a couple things to get the project started....no need to throw out 50 questions at once

 

ok stephen king, you need to take all of what you just said, and type one paragraph with it, or less. i saw bits and peices of it, and it looks like you are asking what we think you should do on your car. its yours, you make the decision, personally i would go for the more horsepower, but thats just me.

There are turbo kits with CARB numbers.

All the numbers that I have seen for a stock DC2 GSR in the magazines lists about a 7.1 0-60 and a mid to high 15 s for the 1/4.

I like this option. Keeping the automatic is going to heavily complicate things for you.

 

Manuel Not possible which option best? (Auto 97 Teg great shape)

Number 1 Just Cams (Have to be stage 1 for cali smog) and P30 pistons Extra 30

Number 2 Um never mind on this one to much money for a 50 HP gain.

Number 3 Engine swap GSR match with LS trans (auto) Supercharge it Jackson racking and Cams Puts me at my goal. With Boost upgrade 1 Looks easy to reprogram for smog.

Option 4 **** it. Just visual and misc *****

Yes.

All the numbers that I have seen for a stock DC2 GSR in the magazines lists about a 7.1 0-60 and a mid to high 15 s for the 1/4.

I know a Auto is a big challenge probably with tunning the most. Just want like a Fast auto thats gun AKA Infinity G35 0-60 in 6.8

I meant GSR With a Jackson Supercharger does it in 5.7 Sec. So i figure maybe a GSR Auto (Worth it or even possible?) would be max 1 sec slower.

My next door neighbor has a Auto Turbo and loves it.

 

Um any other suggestions?
