Default What I should do

I ran into a large sum of money because the insurance companey tryed to screw us over, but actually screwed themself over. I have about 9 grand and I wanted a integra. I got my old Prelude back with a JDM J-Spec H22 Vtec (think it has 210 horsepower) (and has 40,000 miles on it)with new tranny, and alot of other mods to it. I bought a 94+ integra with no motor and tranny, after body work and i get the H22 and tranny in there i will have about 4500 left. I know it will be very fast already, and I want to get a suspesion kit and breaks (probley tenzo) so i can take corners like a real good and that will cost me 1300. and maby 500 on some good speakers, but what should I do with the extra 2700? I can probley do turbo, or nitrous and some internal upgrades (my engine can hold 100 shot stock). give me your opinons please. thanks

Well personally if I were you in that situation with that car and motor I would stay N/A for now and put some good quality internals to strengthen the engine. Seems like a lot of people overlook the actual internals and turbo stock cars. There is nothing wrong with turbo, I want one myself but it can run stronger with stronger internal parts.

yea, for some reason the H22 likes nitrous more then turbo, on the H22 its risky as hell running over 7 PSI on the stock internals, some guy in the FI section just blew his H22 with only 6.5PSI

You sir, are an idiot.

And running Tenzo brakes is what is risky as hell.

The reason h22's arent turbo friendly is because they have weak rods, it can be done, but you have to be very conservative.
