I have a fully built for turbo 2 liter lsvtec in my integ being broken in at the moment and I am looking to put down around 450whp with my 60-1 custom turbo kit. I am wondering if it's worth it to go all out on the integ chassis or switch to the hatch. I know hatches are lighter but I'm not sure by just how much. I was wondering if you think it's that big of a difference that I should consider getting a hatch. In other words I don't want to do full fiberglass if it's just gonna get me down to weight of a stock hatch...thoughts?

Although tracks are dominated by hatches here in SD area so I would stick out in the crowd

 

if you like the teg stick with it. it's all bracket racing for time anyways, if you are consistant you should be fine.

 

I say you stick with the integra. I prefer the integra for the longer wheel base and even tho it might not make that much difference in traction but every little bit counts.

I wish I saw more Integras out there.

 

I say go with the hatch, but just make sure it is a lighter model. Like the CX

 

You'll be fast either way. Just a matter of preference. Of course the lighter car would always be faster so if you're competing in a specific class go with the hatch. If you're street racing, stick with the Integra.

 

Whilst you'll get props for running a teg, you'll run better numbers in a lighter car(all things being equal)
