Hey everyone. I just wanted to say hi and let you all know about me and my ride. I am a home mechanic, have been working on cars since I was twelve. I have a 96(EK) Civic EX Coupe 1.6L SOHC V-Tec. I have a Injen cold air intake, OBX Exhaust, Pacesetter Hi-Flow Cat, MSD internal coil eliminator kit (MSD cap, rotor, blaster2 coil, 10.3mm wires, iridium spark plugs), front upper strut bar, H-brace, and upper and lower rear strut bars. I have done some work to it thus far, but I figured I would join here in the hopes that everyone might have some insight on good horsepower gains, and maybe answer a few questions I might have. I am always willing to answer any questions, like I said I work on cars for a hobby, did for a few years in a shop...so I have some knowledge. I hope everyone has a great day!

looks like your on your way. what are you looking for in horsepower gains?

 

well, I would like a good every day driver, but at the same time I wouldn't mind keeping up with some wrx's if you know what I mean. I have a good idea of what I need to do, but I was wondering if anyone had any parts websites, ideas, setups, or any other recommendations anyone might have. That would be a good place to start. I would like to drop that Mr. Gasket GX-20 into my car, but I don't know if my M/T will bolt up. Other than that, I guess recommendations on turbos, superchargers, heads, intake manifolds, just parts in general would be nice.
