Its pretty easy to install a turbo if you have basic knowledge of the motor. The great thing about hondas is that you can pick up a nice used b18 for less than a $1000 and drop it in yourself in an afternoon. My advice, find a friend that you know that has basic knowlege of a motor, go to the performance shop, and ask for a basic 8psi turbo. The kit with all the trimmings should set you back less than 3500 for a decent one and it will have basic intructions with it. If you have no friends.................... Go to skunk2racing.com and you can drop your car off with them and for a cool $5000 (approx) you will pick your car up in a day or two with an extra 100+ hp. So in aswer to your question.... "What should I do???" Spend a bunch of cash to upgrade a honda or spend a couple grand and get a used early 90s mustang 5.0 that will beat a civic with 3-5 grand dumped in it. you decide. Remember "there is no replacement for displacement!" but "RICE IS CHEAPER!!!"
