Wasted $$$, so what's next!!!
I have a 93 hatch with a b16a sirII. I want to get some speed out of this thing. So what should I do? Sell it? heh...
This is what I have:
B16a sirII with S4C tranny
Skunk2 Intake Manifold
DC 4-1 Type R header
AEM Adjustable Cam Gears
2.5" piping all the way back (after cat)
FPR and Gauge
Short ram intake
DPG Six Puck Clutch
Mugen chipped ecu (Vtec 5400 (i think 5600 but can't tell,) 10k red line, no mph limiter.)
And that is pretty much it.
So, what should the next step be? I was thinking of getting a small loan to put in a Drag Turbo kit, but would it be worth it? Would the B16a hold up with the stock internals?
thanks,

I agree... unless you already have the money for those mods and are just interested in building your credit

Thanks for the replies. Actually, i can afford to pay off a loan. I'd rather do that than spend all cash. I mean, I've been doing all cash for so long, that I am starting to actually want to build credit. Long story. bought three cars on cash only. bunch of other stuff. So, anyway, i got this check (loan) from wells fargo. If I want it, i just deposit it and thats it. Make small payments and go on from there.
As for N/A vs. Turbo, I don't mind either. I just want more speed for the buck without completely blowing my motor. But if I spend over a 1500 bux, i want to be able to be in the 13's at least. So I don't really care if it is N/A or Turbo, I just want bang for the buck. So if I bought a turbo, is it necessary for longevity to buy new rods and pistons and a valve train etc...??? If so, then what would be the next step for speed in a N/A setup. just basically, what would you do?
Thanks again
