Save your money if you plan on getting a Evolution or SRT-4. Why invest on the engine if you plan on getting a sports car? It's much better to just do looks. The f23 autocrapic transmission will fail someday, and with all those performance mods invested u will shell out more money for a swap. That's how most of us got trapped into doing to a 5 speed swap.

If you want a fast car that doesnt require you to put any money into it buy what ur talking about or an sti. An already born turbo car is much more reliable and cheaper than simply just boosting a honda. Usually.
