I'm not very machanically inclined to succesfully complete an ls vtec swap, not sure if it would be in my budget.

Think I could possibly pull off buying it then a DIY turbo kit?
the guy above has no idea wtf he is talking about

My friend has a 4dr Gsr w/ B16(has a 2.0 in it now) and he dailyed it for ever..the car ran well and pulled good being just the 1.6 also surprisingly beat a lot of other cars on the normal street driving. He even went on and put on a t3 turbo kit on it and it still ran good. he dyno'd 260whp @ 10psi. motor never had a problems, blew a little smoke but what turbo car doesnt

civic coupes - dc's are about 200lbs difference, hatchs are about 3-400

But the car will be fine with the b16...hell ive seen DC's driving around with D16s
