should I boost the new car?
 

Here's the new ride.. still have the ls/vtec civic, was thinking about stripping all the turbo parts left on it (oil line kit..etc) and putting it on the new ride before I sell it.. what do you think, should I boost this new car or leave it clean the way it is and not blow it up like the last LS motor that I had boosted in the civic.

'99 integra gs, fully loaded, black on black leather.. only has 83k on it, lady owned it!

Here's some pics, i'll get pics of it this weekend with the old civic side by side once I clean them both up.

Ohh, its not yours...

Buy a project car and drive the integra daily.

Badass Teg. Looks somewhat like mine when I bought it. Except mine had 118,000mi on it. But it was owned by a 40 year old woman, so it was in great condition. It looks like it's owned by an 18 guy now though... Delete that center console, it's a pain in the ass when trying make out/----/etc in your car when you uhh have to... you know. Boost it! Just beware that you'll most likely have to replace the radiator.

damn, i was hoping to keep the thing a/c compatible. I wish I had enough money to keep both cars, the EK was boosted and fun as hell. Thinking about boosting the teg, but I don't want to run into the same problems I had with the civic where it ended up costing me a complete rebuild.

I'm just saying because of the lower miles, and the fact that you're only going to have 1 car to keep it NA, because it seems like when you turbo something, you're not gonna leave it at a measly 8 psi or so :P but seriously, if you want to go ahead. I would just keep it NA and have another car as a project, mostly for dependability issues.

Good call. Might do that, definately can't live without boosting something.. gotta have a reason to be on HMT! ;D

boost the ek again and keep teg for daily driving but if you are sellling the ek get an older model civic like a hatch or crx.
