Turbo FWD vs Turbo RWD, what to do...

yea mustangs are cool, but you dont see integras outrunning v8s everyday, which this tegra should be able to do. Its going to be much more reliable than the 1k hp mustang. Gas milage will be better also. After you get the DD issue solved then go for the high hp play car.

Integra all the way. (also, notice that most of the people saying "mustang for the win" dont show any reasons to thier choice only because they want to see an outrageously powerfull car that sucks to drive on the road...)

btw my friend has a 570hp supercharged 5.0 Yeah its really fast but it sucks to drive on the street because it just wants to go, and stop n go traffic doesnt do it anygood.
 
I personally would do the mustang first just because I love rwd. But in your case I would have to say the integra since it is going to be your dd.
 
I forgot to mention, another reason I would do the integra first is because low compression in a na honda/acura sucks to drive. I am sure it is the same with any other na with low compression to but I have been in a honda with low compression.

Honda/Acura might be reliable, but I believe some of that reliability might be lost when going to turbo, not to mention everything else that will be changed or tampered with. Not questioning the owners mechanical skills, nor the work that is going into the car. Just saying that I would imagine the consensus to be a little less reliable than what it once was.
 
Work before play. That said, I'd finish the daily driven Integra first. Then get along with that Mustang... its going to be down right wicked when its done!


P.S. How the hell do you afford the insurance on both those cars??? Man, you must be raking in the green. :cool:

What about his 91 GSX? It is all stock. If it is about a DD. I don't think is the problem...

Dude. How many projects/cars you have? WTF
Still, I will go with the stang still. Traction is a big issue.:notgood:
