Hey guys I know this is a civic forum I own 2 and you guys have been alot of help. But I have a question about a motor in a 2000 ACURA integra.
1.8l I4 16V MPFI DOHC
Is this reliable as a street app and daily rider? What is this motor capable of producing?? And sorry if i sound dumb but what is MPFI?? Any answers would be cool, thanks guys.

Its a real nice car for cheap and i want to park my civics for the winter for a little TLC.

could you be more specific as in what is the model of your integra (Gs, Ls, GSR Type-R (?)) and auto or manual trans.

Wow. mpfi I feel like dumbass now!! Haha thanks guys. So Overall you would say this is a good motor to start with??
I also went and actually looked at it today
VENOM MODULE
AEM INTAKE
DC Headers
Mugen Exhaust
EDELBROCK PERFORMER X MANIFOLD
i forget what brand throttle body is in it but the assembly is about 6inches long!!
It even has an after market cap rotor kit
so im thinking this deal is getting sweeter and sweeter, considering it only has 80K original miles. Is this or could this be the best project car to start out with? Are their any cons to the setup I'm explaining??
Thanks for your replies.

cons would be that since its got those aftermarket parts on it, you know its been beat on. if it runs strong and does not smoke, its probably good. i got one in my hatch and love it.
