Funny this is he COULD buy the winning votes ;)

:lol: If it was real why did it take so long to be shown. lol.

Hahaha. I never had the intention of tying this, just curious of peoples knowledge about it. A friend asked me and I've never heard of it before.

For argument sake has anyone ever heard of proven results from adding a fuel cooler to a automobile? :confused: The only thing i'm turning up is the idea was originally based on preventing vapor lock in older carb engines and it's less common in FI cars we drive today. Vapor lock -...

Here's a random thought, and cost-wise probably not very feasable ... but you stated the ls trans is a horrible trans. Is it possible to swap to another honda transmission with the ls motor? It's a funny idea and more for knowledge sake then reality lol. And Vtecsir1 where are you located?

Cool i'm going to run some ideas past her and see what i can do here. Thanks for all the input!

Quick question...would i see gains from an increased ignition setup/and at what point would that be needed? I ask because i have one offered to me but its pointless waste if its not needed. FYI it's an MSD box.

Well i told her the trans goes, and a manual goes in so...lol. So can i tune the factory ecu from the ls or do i need a socketed ECU. With my dsm we used a SAFC.

Well the type r pistons are another thought, but i had trouble a while back finding a reliable head swap for an ls/vtec build. I don't really know much about vtec setups or how hard they are to install. I'll do some research on a non vtec all-motor build and costs as well. Thanks for the input!

Can the stock fuel pump handle a small turbo?

Advice is welcome sir, but don't shit on me when you know nothing about me. I'm not implying that i do or do not have the skill to build an engine, as i've been building dsm's for the last 10 years. Yes 10 years as i'm 28 and i bought my first dsm when i was 18 years old. I posted this to get...

Yeah the dsm had a small turbo when i bought it, and the side mount intercooler formentioned. I'd rather not swap the head if i can gain close to my goal without it. I kinda think a turbo setup would be fun for a change anyways. Question though. Can the stock fuel pump from an auto LS handle a...

If your asking a dollar amount. I can afford $200ish a month maybe more. Assuming i cant get the parts through buisness contacts, i can save for what i need.

200hp is just a vague number. I've often driven my friends type r and hes a bit over 200hp and its not crazy fast or anything. I'm just looking to increase the hp to a lvl where i feel it can get out of its own way. Once again, this isn't your typical "I wanna race this at the track/street"...

The point of the entire post is this: We love our integra, and she will not give on the automatic trans. So, what can be done beyond what i've installed that would increase the hp to an area where it no longer feels sluggish. The initial acceleration is slow, but at higher speeds is rather quick.
