Hmm well i might look into one then, I have heard things going both ways, but your the first one to say it should be all good on a Civic... Thanks for the info!

Also, i did a treatment on my engine tonight... and WOW.... before this the engine was TERRIBLE, it had extremely sluggish revving, no power, and was known to blow smoke, but i treated it with Honda Carburetor/combustion Chamber cleaner, and its like a new engine! it feels almost as powerful as my D15B7 in my old civic, and i know theres still a few things that need attention, not to mention the transmission differences (the EK has WAY longer gears, i could only hit 80KMH in second in my EG, but i can hit 100KHM in second on this thing...) So thats a good place to start!
