I'm a noob

[RustySurfer23]

Just purchased a 94 integra ls, knowlage is limited. I am really interested in tunning but I am lost in the lingo and technical terms. Any body that can offer some guidance on where and and how to learn this stuff would be seriously appreciated. Mostly Vtech swaps Vtech heads, what are the first things that you should do when tunning a bone stock integra...ect.

do LOTS of research
but id say for your first mods are the basics
intake, headers, exhaust, new fluids would help

I'd say lower it first with some nice coilovers thann do the intake header exhaust combo. Orrr lower it first and decide if u want to go all motor or turbo.

Best thing you could do is go back in time and get a gs-r. The sky's the limit from there.

I should have mentioned it is lowered, every one is saying headers and intake first. Would you say all motor is a better rout or turbo. I plan to put vtec heads on as soon as i can and a cool air intake. so far that is the extent of my plans because I know nothing.

thats usually the first thing new-to-honda people learn :lol: but don't worry, were here to help :thumbs up

If you're brand new, ignore all the people telling you to do coilovers and LS/VTEC swaps. Start off with simple bolt ons. Intake, header, exhaust. Best way to learn is wikipedia, honestly.

Learn about the differences in B series engines.

Learn about your car and the different years and trim level.

Ask a lot of questions if you're unsure.

Research, research, research. It's all you can do.

Would you recomend hytec replica or dc 4 to ones?

Well i appreciate helping me not sound like an idiot, although i'm sure that is impossible to avoid at this point haha.

 

[guiltyxxspark]

I've heard good and bad things about both of those. Do your reserch and keep shopping around.

I'm just gonna say it... :roll: a lot of the guys on here are gonna say "BUY NAME BRAND OR ELSE!"

Name brand gets you a little more hp, a little bit better welds, and more durable metal (less prone to dings and rust). And more "rep". It's nice to list off all the expensive parts on your car sometimes. IMO those Hytec replicas are fine by me.
