Ben, you really need to do some more research before you start spending money, or it will all go down the $#!+ter real quick. Click the "How to Turbocharge your Civic" link in Grumble's signature. It will get all the basics down for you and give you a good idea of what you should be spending money on and what you shouldn't. It's a good thread and will learn you a lot.

If you read the FAQs rather than trying to fill a shopping list you would start t see what you need and would KNOW what you needed to buy. All you seem to be concerned about is buying stuff rather than learning stuff.

Sorry if I'm grumpy but you noobs come in here at least once or twice a week asking the same tired question and want it all handed to you

But eh, what do I know right? Go ahead and buy your parts. Good luck to you.

I'm doing the research now. Thanks for your help. I'm not buying anything for a while, looks like it's going to be more work than I originally thought.

Take that $1000 and do an LS swap. You'll still get ~30 mpg and the difference between a Z6 and a B18 is night and day, especially in a ~2200lb vehicle where the 600lb heavier Integra makes it feel more sluggish.

I was going to boost my Z6 Coupe, but ended up trading it for an EG hatch with an LS. Stock LS can handle more boost than a stock Z6 as well however b-series parts are going to be more expensive and not quite as common as D.

If you're wanting to stay N/A I'd highly recommend just going B however if you see boost in your future you can do just fine sticking with a D-series.
