I have about 10,000 dollars to play around with and i'm wondering what engine/transmission combo would get me the most power. Almost certain to have a turbo install later and nos. What turbo's do you recommend and nitrous system.

 

$10g's eh? .... u sure you want to put that into a 97 4dr civic? and not like an Si year 2003+? i'd get a dif car if i were you

 

Well, i already have alot of money in this car as far as custom work. I have 3000 in paint, 6000 in audio/visual. But the honest truth about the car is it holds alot of sentimental value. As far as weight goes the passenger and back seats are ripped out. the whole car from the front seat back is plush carpet and trunk. Spare tire and jack gone. Air Conditioner gone. Side door panels replaced with a custom fitted fiberglass panel. Plus, just because alot of people say it can't be done with a four door. I make the kind of money to make it happen. 10 grand here, 10 grand there, if I end up under a bridge I'll always have a kick *** ****ing car.

 

all 10 g's says to me is a k20 swap. shop around 10 gand should do it....i'v also seen a 96 hatch with the k20 an intake with exhaust smoke a wrx...nothing else done to it
