Theres hardly any aftermarket support for the A series. You got lucky because the A20A3/4 are the EFI versions. Basically if you want to make it anything more than a DD, invest in some Hasport mounts and drop a B series in it.

Default Re: a20a3...wtf
i wasnt saying that i wanted to turbo it, just wondering if anything can be done with it without swapping the motor. obviously not. i am not going to pout money into this car other than simple shit like some new tires and a new battery to keep it running and inspection legal. thanks for the advice on stuff guys
