The civic and the camry you would have to add the boost but its not too expensive. The dsms are easy to work on an fun to drive an easily fast the only reason i wouldnt suggest a dsm is because they aren't really reliable. Especially once you open the hood. Only way to make them reliable is get it tuned. My friend had a 92 eclipse gsx awd that car was fun an it was fast an we didnt even do that much to it. Not even half the stuff we were goin to but he sadly decided to sell it. If you want serious speed for a small budget get a dsm. If you want dependability with your import an have some money prob buy a honda.
