Hey man I was in the same situation about half a year ago as you, and I chose to get the body kit. I can tell you know, you will regret not going boost when you had the money. If I could turn back time I would befinitely get a turbo kit over the body kit. But hey you live and you learn.

Re: body kit or turbo?? (REDBARON)
Well you said yourself that you want to go fast and while its not going to be a noticable difference a body kit will make you go a bit slower.....I would definately do the turbo first that is unless of course you got yourself one hell of a deal on a body kit and by that I mean mean being able to pick up a WW kit for like $100 bucks or something!! But then of course if its that cheap you probably would have money for both!!

Honestly tell us how happy you will be when a stock looking Civic fly's past you at near treminal velocity? Boost n Juice young grasshopper. Fiberglass is fine for surfboards but silly on cars.

and the bored has reached a new low when the question is asked "Should I get a body kit or a turbo?" As though they are A, in the same price range, and B even comparable. Should you really have to ask.

I believe they are in the same price range, the price of the bodykit plus the paint/labor etc........ i think it would be pretty close. Ohh and turbo that bastard man!

Well you can always find a rear bumper thats not that big of a deal. But like I said in my earlier post if you found the kit for like $100 bucks or so wouldnt you be able to afford both then?? I mean if you can seriously get the whole kit minus the bumper for $150 I would say go for it as long as it really is a poly WW kit and not a knock off fiberglass kit. You can always save up an extra $150 bucks to get the turbo in a few weeks but if it really is a WW kit your not going to find a deal like that so I guess I will be the first to say pick up that cheap WW kit save for a few more weeks then get your turbo!!
