rigggght...so its fair to put up a car with a aftermarket turbo kit boosting 14psi and a tune against stock evo. Lets put 1/4 of the money spent on the integra into the evo and lets see who wins. I'm sorry, but i hate it when people say "evo eater, sti killer, supra killer" etc when its only referring 2 the car(STOCK) up against a built civic with a h22a turbod with slicks and nitrous or something.

PS: you'll get more oohs, ahhs, stares, girls, and respect with a stock evo than a boosted 90 somethin integra with 1 or MAYBEMAYBE 2 seats. True story:

A guy pulls up in a stock evo calmy driving into the lot infront of a huge crowd of car enthusiasts and guys are just staring the car down the second he pulls in to the second he parks. Few minutes later a civic hatch comes in revving and openin up his bov and people glanced at him for a few secs and that was about it.


but back on topic...there are tons of choices and what you plan on doing with it. If you just want somethin cheap to build up, get a older DSM or a honda like this guy is talkin about that will kill evos.

00-05 saab 9-5 aero. 260hp turbo 4. rare. luxurious. ventilated seats. handles like a boat though. "goes from 40-80mph faster than a porsche 996 turbo."- top gear. with just a chip, you are pushing 280whp.

the cleanest 1993-1997 Rx7 i could find.. Bone stock with like 25,000 miles of un modded rotory power. For being 9-13 years old the car still looks better than half of the new cars being made, not to mention NO OTHER CAR sounds like it, well other than a street bike


Its just ashame the 2 rotor engine is so damn unreliable.

Call me crazy but... a primer crown vic with an engine swap for something to get reasonable gas mileage...like a 460 super cobra jet. Maybe even a supercharger to really get that good mpg haha.

a hatch back like the Honda Fit or VW Rabbit/GTi.

Good to have a 27-30mpg daily driver for commute!
