Hey guys, i have a 93 dx with a d16z6, my goal is to hit 13 - 13.5 and still have a reliable street car with decent gas miles. my only problem is i cant decide weather to turbo or go itb and build it up n/a. as i said i want reliablity thats why im questioning the turbo, whats you opinion? can i hit 13.5 safely with my z6 n/a? im relitivley new to hondas and d series tuning. I have intake headers exhaust fuel rail cam gear and am working on uberdata engine managment right now. any opinions on where i should go from here would be great.

itb and daily driver....? probably not the route to go. turbo is ok. but then you'll never know until your rings break or something (unless it's built up) it's all a matter of time. n/a ...high compression pistons, head work, really good cam, all the bolt-ons, slicks, and a really good ems and maybe just maybe you'll hit 13's. better just spray. imo

Oh and to the guy that made this post turbo your Z6. You should be able to reach your goals and still have your car be reliable if you do it right.

go turbo or nitrous.....alot of people that go nitrous usually wind up going turbo, but not all.....turbo sure you will not get as great gas mileage but the power is there when you need it....if you go nitrous you will get the good gas mileage of a z6 with bolt ons but you will half to refill the bottle and the power isnt always there. but i say those are the best to options and there both fairly cheap, for the power.
