Kill Motor, Clutch, Tranny…

Replace…

Blow next major component…

Replace…

Blow next major component

Upgrade Turbo

Upgrade Fuel system

Break something else

no he could throw 5lbs at it stock …but passing NYI and still staying under 2k it would be easer to pick up a $700 rust POS 90-93 ef civic and spend $1300 on a turbo kit and call it a fun summer

much better idea for the noob, since he wants a boosted honda:

sell current civic.

buy not one, but 2 ef generation civics…hatch, coupe, whatever…

keep one stock as DD. get 40MPG. have it run forever. win.

buy other one with a bad motor, or already swapped d or b series. if it’s a b series, it’ll be plenty of fun NA (compared to what you have now). if that’s not enough for you, you may still have the money between the $2K you get from tax and selling the current civic to do a budget boost build. egay piping, used fuel components, used turbo…and pay a board member off the books to do the build, won’t be as reputable as a shop, no guarantee, but will be a hell of a lot cheaper and there’s plenty of capable and smart board members that would love to take your money and get the job done for you…

with $2K, a turbo build anywhere out of your own garage isn’t possible…period. unless of course, you want the car to explode the first time to try driving it after whatever modifications you plan on making.
