Default Modifying my 94 ex

So I was just wondering if there is anything I can do to improve preformance on my 1994 civic ex either by replacing the whole engine with a better one or by adding some stuff... or if I should just save money and buy another car in the future... it runs great, is in good condition, and I love driving it but just want to know if i should mod or just not waste my money...

it just depends what you wanna spend your money on(ie are you attached to your car or not) and how finacially setup you are.

If you're cheap, and just looking for speedI have the right path for u. Sell the honda, and go buy a mustang. If you want handling, speed and fuel economy, go for boost, or a b18c or H22 swap.

Youalready have moderate performance on your EX, so ouy could probably get away with a turbo and get a good power boost.

ive got money to spend and was maybe thinking about a k series swap... is this a good route or should i go with a b series like a 20... what are my options... I want speed and preformance but dont need something crazy... but I would like to go top dollar... is it even possible to make a civic as fast as a STI with out breaking oyur wallet? because to be ownest thats my goal... maybe even faster

K-swaps are amazing. They're pretty much hands-down the best engine choices available (provided you have the cash)... and I'd say go with HMO... they're expensive, but you know what they say: you get what you pay for.
