o **** that sucks well then should i go with a turbo instead? or nitrous or is hat bad to run on a stock engine

 

Bad to run on your stock engine, it boils down to it simply is not worth modding your car in the end. Sorry man

 

dam man i guess i will just save for the k20a? is that right the k20a?

 

yep

 

Sorry to bring your hopes down, just think that you worked hard for what you got and in life you will be better off then these rich spoiled kids. Don't worry about it, its just jealousy and hey you don't need to beat them with your car. You have already won in your mind

 

Well a car is not a way of saying you are better than anyone at all. I mean i know retard *** broke people that drive Lexas's and Benze's then again i know rich people that drive 82 F-150's and acura integra's. The 9th richest man in the world(a musulim in the mid east) own a DC2 ITR. Bill gates drives a hybrid honda, some of the most powerfull people in the U.S. drive common everyday cars.

 

I'm going to give you the lowdown on your car and why you shouldnt waste money on it.
In the previous years (92-00) Most civics came with a D16, you may say, ok one number difference. Nope. The D17 is probly the worst base honda engine to make fast. Can It be done? Ofcourse it can, but it will take lots of money. Best thing would be to find a Older civic and boost the engine in it. witch would cost about 2k

 

thanks im going to stick with my car take it step by step and see if i can slowly replace the stock engine parts for performance ones and that quite possibly have been the corniest thing ive ever heard but at least my car thumps hella louder

 

Dude, there is no way you're going to squeeze more power ot of a d17 NON vtec, especially if it's an auto... That car must be worth at least 4k if it's in good condition, sell it and buy an EG or EK. I got my EK for $2500, have spent less than a thousand on it and my spoiled friends in their 05 mustangs are jelous... SELL YOUR CAR

I forgot to mention... please buy a manual trans car next time... sure, it takes a little time to learn, but trust me and the rest of us on this forum, it's worth it and it's a million times more fun and rewarding to drive

 

eg civic- $2000
JDM D15b with less than 35,000 miles + new tranny: about $600 plus shipping
exhaust- $350 shipped
skunk 2 cam- $300


There you go, a fast ***, runs like new eg for under $3500. Make it $4000 and you could also pick up shocks and springs, a lightweight flywheel, maybe some headers...Look for stuff on craigslist, ebay, etc. You can get **** cheap used. I got a full greddy turbo kit from a friend for $300.
