Yeah I admit I am new to the boards here with hondas and acura,but I am just trying to get to know them and asking questions is how alot of people do it. So dont critisize me BUD

I got my point across. You're all over the place, not focused, or even educated AT ALL, on what you want to do.

T-66 on an LS, w/ 500 hp to the wheels daily driven? Give me a fucking break!

Yep... my bad about the weights. Turns out my old source site (http://auto.consumerguide.com/auto/used/) is inaccurate about several things.

ANYWAYS, what I was trying to point out was that you had picked the wrong platform for über speed. Find me a stock high-performance car (NSX, S2000, TVR, Jag KXR, BMW M3/5, Merc SL600, DB7, the list goes on...) that has a FWD powertrain. Can't? Good, because FWD was not meant to be powerful, but light, economical, and easy to drive. RWD has a superior power distribution that makes having a high-power car controllable. FWD integras were meant to be a cheap sporty car for the average consumer, and with the release of the Type R, a decently competative track/autocross car. Integras were not meant to handle the power you see in the movies *coughcough*The Fast and the F*cktards *coughcough* and you should recognize the engineering limitations as such.

Make your car sporty and fun to drive. You'll never be able to beat, with any economic sense that is, a 800+hp 1970 Chevy Nova. 1.8L FWD cars were never meant to compete with a possibly 7L+ RWD. It's just the natural order of things

You got your point accross and I know what your saying but I know I'm not going to compete against cars like a beefed vette,or an rx-7 I just want a fast car and be able to compete against those guys that think their camaros and stangs are fast cause they have exaust ,cam,and a cool paint job. Those guys are friggin annoying!

I was saying T-66 for INSTSANCE that guy running a T-78 is way f***ing bigger than a T-66 so I said T-66 since I wanted 250HP less than him But I think I'll stick with a ball bearing T3/T4E and call it good,with a good fuel set up and the right c/r pistons /rods I'll be doing pretty good. I am educated by the way I am able to rebuild my old 7mgte and got 263 HP out of it stock is 232 I am just not caught up with the whole honda thing yet since I concentrated on toyota inline six's. are you educated or did you learn online?

Ahem, well let me just say you're wasting your time if you want to beat those V8's in your front-wheel drive 4-banger. You *can* make your car quick, fun, and just about as fast as most of the V8's out there, but if they piss you off THAT much then just go ahead and buy a sports-bike. Like I said before, don't let them bother you that much.

Building up an all-motor engine and then slapping a turbo on it isn't exactly productive...pick one route and then stick by it. Also remember that tuning ultimately determines the effectiveness of your set-up.

Btw, T-66's never see the light of day on street-driven hondas. Remember, you're working with 1.8 liters on an engine that comes naturally aspirated from the factory.

I think I will maintain my dignity and rise above this meaningless drivel.

1) A B18B will not make a good all-motor engine, since it's not made to rev past 6750...safely. Granted an upgraded valvetrain and cams will let you idle like a muscle car, you still won't be eating V8s. I'd say build a B18C on the side, but even an all-motor B18C won't be beating V8s...at least not on a daily basis.

2) Turbo that biatch. A healthy serving of T3/T4 will get you what you need.
