    Default Boosting my b18a1 for 200whp

    I was looking to boost my Da to 200whp. Nothing insane. Im looking to get an el' cheapy' o turbo kit. like this one...

    Its nothing amazing but i think it will work for what im looking for. The Da has 152,xxx miles on the chasis and 80k on the motor and tranny. I have a small grind in third. but other than that the cars fine. So i guess what Im asking is... Will this kit do what im wanting it to do?

    Yeah thats what i was afraid of... I really didn't think that kit would do so good. I would be better off piecing one together huh?

    Number one problem right there. You could piece together a decent kit. I"d attempt to fix the "grind issue" first instead of adding more power though
