Default Whats Best For A Ls Setup

I've a 96 Acura Integra Ls.I recently installed a stage 2 clutch,pressure plate and 8lb flywheel.I want to know if its ok to install a turbo kit on a stock Ls motor,without the motor being affected or blown in anyway.Its a daily drive car.

Yup, general rule is 8 pounds or less and a good fuel management/tune. DO NOT skip the tune.

Whatever you do, don't skimp out on the tune as Phyregod already pointed out. Otherwise, your engine may go boom.

Your tuner will let you know what needs to be done to your ECU as he tunes it.

You should upgrade your injectors and fuel pump. Depending on what kit you are going with it may end up bringing a set of injectors. Use those, get a Walbro 255lph, tune and enjoy. Best of luck my friend.

I wouldn't worry about cams right now, get the turbo set up first. The best ecu to use is a p28, that means you got to get a obd2 to obd1 jumper, a obd1 ls dizzy and then get it tuned. Also bigger injectors and colder plugs.
