New Project Car I Picked Up Today!

Well I picked up this lovely Acura Integra LS from a friend for a whopping $500 cash! The hood was broken into and part of his turbo kit was stolen while he was stationed away in Japan. His parents send the car to a local garages fenced in lot, and I drug it out today! Revival of the dead Teggy! It ran about 8 or so months ago, so a tune up and some little things, and she should wake back up again! Here she is, all dirty and nasty, but not for long!









And here is what is going in that void in the front! Included for free to with the car! Looks like crap, but not for long!

I'm still keeping the Cobalt since it's paid off and modded to the hilt! This is just another fun toy to play with. It has a clean title still too!

That small 16G included is good for 340hp. I think it'll do just fine.

Ya! I used to have a 94 Integra LS. It was black too. I'll be very excited to see the final product.

ok, you have a ss/sc, and now a turbo teg. I say one is enough. get the teg running and boosting and clean it up really nice. then flip it. you'll easily get around $4500 for a turbo teg which equals way more mod money for the balt. I'm not giving you a hard time or telling you what to do, but thats what i would do.

I bought a 01 cavalier for $500..put maybe $800 worth of work into it and sold it for way way more. thats how i have my cobalt now.

I thought about flipping it for awhile, but for what though? My Cobalt has almost every damn mod possible now except for a P&P head and pistons, and it's all paid off for that matter. I think the Turbo Teg will become my Drag car since I won't mind breaking it as much as the Cobalt. Plus, the girfriend said she actually likes this one!

I wish I could get a deal like that somewhere. There's a 92 SE-R at a garage down the street that I'm trying to get my hands on. Good luck with it man!

I got the beast running today! I just used some vise grips to crimp off the old cut oil line for the turbo, capped off the drain fitting in the oil pan, put some plug wires on and some oil in it, and jumped started her! She fired up on the first try! WooT! Open exhaust coming straight from the engine sounded rather interesting though! Tomorrow begins the turbo mounting and pipe fabrication! She might just be boosting by tomorrow evening.

Anybody know where I can get some 550cc injectors for cheap?

Hells yeah man! By the way this is Mike for all those that don't know. He's the one who I always get to check out how clean his tailights look.
