I just bought a 2000 Acura Integra GSR with the 1.8. I am thinking about putting a turbo on it but i have no idea what turbo i should get for it. I was hoping for suggestions on who's turbo and which turbo. My car is stock minus the skunk 2 coil-overs and sway bars in front and rear.

 

the engine is going to remain stock?

 

besides for new injectors, fuel pump, and being tuned yeah it would be

 

unless other stuff is NEEDED, but its my DD too so i was thinking about a 8-10 psi boost depending on the turbo

 

**Moved to Forced Induction**

Step 1: Read the Forced Induction FAQ
Steps 2-28: See above

Stock B series is good for ~3-350whp in stock form.
PSI means nothing...set a POWER goal, not a boost goal as it differs from turbo to turbo/setup to setup

 

I wouldn't go any bigger than a t3/t4

you need to factor in the cost of getting it tuned, and the cost of a programmable ecu


you also need to be able to stop faster before you need to be able to go faster

 

boy, that narrows it down..

 

Narrowed it down from 50,000 choices to 49,998

 

50 trim would do well with a .63 housing. Will spool nicely and mae the power a stock GSR can handle and be a fun car to drive. PLus 50 trims are on the cheaper end. Buy a garrett unit.

 

Truth. While I have a .57 trim from Garrett, it is a nice turbo. They can be had cheap. Like say, someone blew up their new build and part out their turbo kit. Got mine for under $400 and it was pretty much new. Still had all the marking from Greg on it.
