doing mods to the 420A gets you two things: DICK and ALL. there are guys who sunk thousands of dollars into all-motor mods and make only 10 more whp then Integra GSRs do STOCK. the only answer is turbocharging, or nitrous, so unless you are prepared to spend at least $1,000 you should really just not even bother and sell your car and get a Honda. go look at this article to get an idea of how to turbocharge your car for cheaper... http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/showthread.php?t=181134

$1000, that's nothing, hell I've spent thrice that amount and I don't even consider my car mildly modded. If you're going to play the game you have to take the hit, in the end it's all what you want your car to do, and how much fun you have doing it.

Exactly. Pay to play. It's the hardest pill to swallow in this hobby, as far as I'm concerned. Then again, if you truly love your car and can't imagine ever getting rid of it, who cares how much money you throw at it, right?

He's right. You get nothing out of the experience. You won't learn how to work on your own car or fix things when they break. You won't gain a sense of accomplishment for doing something yourself, and you won't be true to the reason why this site was created in the first place - to give the 2GNT owner a place to learn and disuss his mod options.
He's also right that unless you put her on the bottle or boost her, you're not going to be very happy with it unless you're some kind of all motor lunatic like me and take pride in not making 200hp despite having more than half the cost of the car new under your hood.
If you like the car and you want to mod/work on it, then stick around and have fun. Keep your goals realistic and you will not be let down. Use the search before posting basic questions like this and you will not let us down.

I'm not sure what of this is sarcasm and what is honest. While its true you will learn how to turn the wrenches on your car and fix things when they break, and 2GNT is here to discuss mod options, from a performance standpoint, an all-motor build up on this motor does not make any sense, for reasons I am not exactly sure of. maybe the lack of V-TAK!!!1 or something. Performance-per-dollar on an all-motor build up on this motor is terrible. Turbo it, and you will learn just as much, and be going way faster for less money.
