hey i'm wondering what all i can do to my 90 integra 5 speed. i'm just getting into the game and i'm wondering what ---- i can do to help my car get some more horsepower without wasting a ---- load of money

 

first off, you need to ask yourself.. how much money do you want to spend..

Forced induction or NA?

 

then, you take that b18a out, ship it to me for $50, and get a b18c... lol j/k.. but if u really want to...

he's right, ,all about the money.

 

yeah i'm thinking about putting in about a thousand and i was just wondering if anyone had anything that helped them get a few h.p. for cheap

 

my brother and i make homemade exhaust, so i have a home made 2.5 inch mandrel bent exhaust and a homemade header(i wouldnt suggest this unless you have reasonable skill, it took me about 30 hours of crazy work), a homemade intake- copied an AEM style intake, and a whole lot of other bolt ons. these things make the car a lot more fun to drive, etc, but what i will be doing is a homemade turbo setup.......wait, what site is this, ah, i cant remember, there is a site about homemade turbo's somewhere...........maybe that is what you should do.

 

if you need to know ANYTHING about the second gen integra im your man, i ran 8psi all day in my daily driven 91 gs 5 speed for awhile till i crashed it, and i never did any damage to the engine at all. shoot me an e-mail any time im just about always online and i love to help people out. and btw, i spend about $700 on my ome built turbo system. if you have some pretty good know how and some cash to burn i can have u boosting in about 3 weeks. mail me at BortDaTegKid@aol.com

i know this is off the topic but i was just testing my car out and its a 90 ls integra and it cut out at 110, i was in 5th at around 5 thousand rpms, but i had the pedal the the floor for about a min and it wouldn't go any fast. Also one thing it maybe my speedometer cable was fucked up when i bought it and so put some lube in it and now it has stopped screeching but i'm wondering if that might have anything to do with it stopping b/c i think i might of been going faster than 110 thats why i think this

 

you're car should go far faster than 110, mine used to go well into the 130's, and not sure if the speedo was right, got it going 142 one time. but think of the real safety in that.
How fast do you wanna go? If you wanna go turbo, then you will be plenty quick, but in my old 90 GS I hit 14.89 with I/H/E, race cat and MSD. pretty close to 1g in upgrades. One thing you should really consider doing is replacing the clutch, that is one thing I never did and wish I would have.
