Ive seen multiple 300+ HP civics at the track by my house. You can pull more power out of a D series than you would think. Plus a boost.

Lowering does have its benefits, but if you have in an area with a lot of pot holes, dips, speed bumps,steel platesor steep exits, you might not want to lower too much. I recently just tore my bushings because I tried to angle in this small exit area and ended up going over the curb...I'm also in constant fears of new locations because i do not know the quality of the streets.

why are you guys seriously answering this question, it doesn't deserve one. if you don't have that much common sense, then you shouldn't own a car or have a steady job.
Why be such a wet blanket? It's a chat forum after all.
don't even get me started on you...

no, not really, because i don't call people rude names (like **** and wet blanket) unless they start something. and the reason i made my original comment is because no one uses the search button (or even google for that matter) to answer these questions that have already been answered before.

p.s. forty's the ****, right?

This is true of most threads -- it's just inherent to almost any forum. Really no reason to get upset.

not upset, it's just people should have more common sense when they own a multi-ton vehicle. and when i say things on this forum, you shouldn't take them to heart, it's just a forum, and no matter how "mad" you think i am, i'm not, that's just the way forums work. and this is my last post in this thread, b/c it just went ghey.
