I love 93 coupes.

You have a stick, right?

Umm... grab a new intake manifold for about 200-300. I believe that would be around 30hp right there. Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong.
dont believe you will get 30 hp out ofa new intake but it will be a nice gain

Everones telling you to get rid of the wing because it slows you down, and since Civics are FWD cars, it does almost nothing to help your traction or acceleration (actually reducing the former, not to mention reducing gas mileage). If you want to get into racing, or even want to beat your friend off a stoplight, it would help to get rid of it...If you like it that much, maybe you could rig up some kid of quick release, so you can take it off when you want to have your acceleration, and, imo that would actually be pretty cool being able to just snap off or maybe unbolt a few spots and take it off (rather than having to unbolt everything in the trunk).

Cheaty, it's funny you mention that, cause it actually does unbolt right from the top. It came with certain bolts for the top with a tool so people can't just come by and take it off, but I got the thing to take it off and leave the brackets on the trunk (if that's what you meant). BTW, any other suggestions to help my performance are still welcome. Thanks everyone!

Decals, lots and lots of decals.

Make sure they're vinyl... those are top of the line.

its a start i say u go b series and B16A 160 hp eh its not great. but they have potential i've seen built and turboed b16a's smash on supras. they can get rediculiousy fast. or u can go cheap d16. SOHC V-TEC build/turbo they get quick. they can beat sti's and such things like that. i the wing eh doesnt do anything to cars speed in a good way but i honestly think ur just caryying etra bagadge.... yeh.
