Whats up people? I have a 97 civic dx coupe. I am only 16 and my father and I didnt know much about civics when we purchased mine. Now, i know a good bit about them and wish i would have waited and got at least an lx or ex. I was just wondering what i could do to make it a little quicker, but on a small budget. So far i have got an exhaust and thats pretty much it. Thanks

 

well if you already have the exhaust i would recomend getting some headers, and an intake, wither short ram or cold air which ever is your preference and living conditions(if your in an area hat doesn't rain much then i would recomend a CAI.. well actually i would recomend a CAI anyway unless your living in an area where you can snorkel on the roads more then driving on them... as for other mods on a small budget.. i would love to know of them too cause i am on a limited budget... i don't even have an exhaust on mine yet...

 

ya, i plan on getting an intke next paycheck. I'm probably going to go with a short ram since its less expensive and i wont have to wory about hydro lock since it rains alot in my area. Which short ram would you guys recomend? I have been looking at a k&n.

 

i personally just went with the elchipo ebay intake, i only paid $50 after shipping to Canada. but as soon as i can i am going to get a K&N filter. where are you located?

 

Mobile, Alabama

 

hello and welcome i went with a matrix short ram it works fine bought it at a local parts place for $55.00 good luck on your civic

 

I got a K&N air filter for my LX, and I could feel the punch right away after I bought it. They only cost $50 with shipping at the most, and you can clean them too.

 

K and N is top of the line products..go for it
