sell your car and get a civic and put in an integra engine! j/k..bolt ons add power but not as much as a turbo would add.. and if you don't do any internal upgrades to your engine your turbo will probably end up blowing your engine. If you want a reliable car with turbo you either need to rebuild the engine and upgrade pistons and what not or buy a GST/GSX.. but someone said above the factory turbos aren't anything good..but i've seen MANY people get into mid 13s with factory turbo. Friend ran a 13.4 with exhaust, 16 psi, intake, cams, and injectors. no front mount..no upgraded turbo..not even upgraded intercooler pipes. 1Gs have been known to run even lower because the 14b is a better turbo then the T-25..but not by much. most people with GST/GSXs who don't want to spend the money of a big16g or some other big turbo will buy a $300-500 turbo..like a FP Big T-28 is a good turbo. People put 14Bs in their 2Gs too. i try not to mod my car too much because it's my daily driver and i drive it to college which is 7 hours away. If this was a spare care i'd upgrade the turbo, get a front mount, exhaust system..everything..but i need something reliable.
