Default This topic yet again, what would you do with $2750.

Alright, when I sell my turbo and various other things, I am gonna spend about $2750 of it on the car. Suspension is done, dont want anything for the body. ALL of its going in the motor.
Stock B16A2 with intake, exhaust and high flow cat. Also, OBD2-OBD1 conversion, P28 ECU w/ Hondata Stage 2. Stock tranny except for stage 3 clutch. What would you do with the $$$?

You may be able to just sell the B16 and use that with the $2750 to get a C5.

But

I love the H22s for the 96+ and they're cheaper.

Got torque?

I'd wipe my *** with it because the Honda-Tech community's opinion matters more than my own and that makes me too pitiful a human being to deserve spending that amount of money

Wow, that the best idea yet. Seriously though, if I had typed out all my own ideas, and I have TONS of them, would you have read all of them and given me your honest opinion? I didnt think so. If you dont wanna give me an idea, then dont reply,simple as that.

I can see that you don't have any money tied up in any of the above or you would know what a worthless bunch of crap that it is.....the Type-R would still make more money in the end.....

Get rid of the 1.6 and step up to a built 1.8 (GSR or Ls/vtec) bottom end. Or save a little more and go CRVtec.

Or turbo.

I'm being facetious, and yes, I have money tied up in mutual funds and bonds (no stocks for me), and no, I don't even bother figuring out if I'm making money or not with that as it's part of my benefits package at work...so yes, you are correct!
