Default 2500$ 4 euro r front clip

i was going to turbo my f22 originally but the money it costs for turbo, fuel management and tuning, gauges and lsd plus i need new motor and transmission. i think euro r swap plus boltons will squeeze me into 13's with my 94 accord ex, what u guys think either way ur gonna have to run 93 octane with h22 or turbo f22 plus the hassle of turbo not being as reliabe as dropping a motor in and driving this is my daily driver by the way i did some figures.
2000= turbo kit
1000=low mileage jdm f22 swap
1000=tuning,gauges,wideband etc
1000= lsd and little odds and ends

5000k or 2500 for swap i also go to college and i work at walmart wat u guys think

Being in college, you led me to believe that this would be somewhat coherent.

Is your college paid for ? If it is i say go for it.. If your working an paying for college i say you keep your car well maintained, and don't get yourself into money pits..

You'll be more into the car then into college, finish college get a great career and you wont even worry about the price tag on turbo kits, get me ??

If you work at WalMart and you're in debt from college just do what i did. I took out a lot of extra loans so I would get a really inflated change check to use for cars and bikes. Next thing you know I went from driving a 94 Suzuki Swift, to driving a clean b-series swapped hatch and a ducati....just pay that **** off later dude! can't beat that subsidized tax deductable interest rate. lol! everything I just said it pretty much true. I worked my *** off too tho while I was in college and got out with only $15k in debt

WOW, this is some Honda stuff buddy not a job app!!! And obviously most of ya dont know how to read as he said he has grants and his college is paid for... Grants is free money!!

So In my opinion If your really into your car and luv it like the honda enthusiast I am and sure lots others on here are I would do what ya want to it!!! ;-) Build it, but make a budget before hand and research all parts. You could prolly just get h22 swap for 2200 or less. Ive seen them done for bout 2000..
