I want a lot of speed when my civic is complete. I say i'll be done in about three years but right now i need to be sure that im gonna get a good engine so i dont waste time hookin up this one when it cant handle what i want done. I'm in the military and every pennie i got is going to my civ... In the mean time im wondering if i should get an exhaust and intake or suspension with rims and tires????? What rout would you guys take??? Anyway, I'll have pictures of all the neons and stuff that i put in and my car too. This website is freakin awesome, thanks for the replies guys

Welcome to HCF. Now is money any consideration or not? There's a nice B18C5 that'll fit in there, then you can turbo or supercharge it, along with a nice big bottle of juice for it.

Well, heres my two cents.. First off, welcome to forum, i hope you enjoyyour stay! Second, if you want your car to be able to handle a lot of speed, than this is what i'd do first..

Wheels/Tires
Suspension
Brakes - This is CRUCIAL! 500 horsepower does you no ****ing good if you can't stop. So an upgrade to a big brake kit, or even a four wheel disc conversion from an integra or something would be your best bets.

Then start with the power adders. B18C5 is a phenominal engine. As is the B16, or you could shoot for the stars and get a K20 (Acura RSX Type-S). After that, the skys the limit. Good luck, and keep us posted
