Hey guys Im new to this forum, well I bought another Civic as a second car got a 99 Civic LX sedan. I currently have an 06 EX Sedan with Fujita CAI Magnaflow catback exhaust along with SI suspension etc.
I am looking to do some Mods to the 99 to improve power, what is the most cost effective way with this motor. I dont think its a Vtec motor, any suggestions?

Thanks in advance...

it's an automatic, which is a little slower, you can convert to manual, but it takes some know how to do so. you can do a mini-me (vtec conversion) with a y8 head (good for about 20 horsepower)

 

I/H/E on the 99... like ej6 said, try a mini-me swap. Also, try to lose weight on the car... I doubt you'll be able to remove much without sacrificing comfort or safety, but you can try-- the general rule of thumb is that every 100lbs on the chassis is .1s on your 1/4 mile time. Add 100lbs, and your car just got about .1 seconds slower. Remove 100lbs, and your car is now a little faster.

 

go on a diet

Its actually a Manual, where can one get a Vtec head?

 

ebay, scrap yards, forum for sale threads, im looking for one at the moment, i got an eye on one, on an auction site, that is still at one euro, with one day left

 

WHat about turbos for an 99 LX are there any on the market that doesnt remove the Cat making it illegal?
