And her Civic is no ricer. It's clean!

You can piece together a turbo kit for around $2000 (or so i hear, i've never done it). I'd talk to trustdestruction, or GReddy_Civic, and there's some others with turbos on here.
Thank you!! I'm in the process of getting my Engine built! I'm not a bolt on queen.

so this is the route i think i am going to take for now..new header because i'm pretty sure it is a crappy obx on there now and it sounds like it has a leak..my questions about the header are 4-2-1 vs. 4-1...dc sport's claims 10-12 hp with theirs?..a test pipe because i don't have to worry about emissions..I'm planning on some catback..i loved how my borla catback sounded on my focus..any suggestions would be great..i've yet to come across anything about tuning these cars..is there hidden power to be found if i had someone tune it?

Anyways, I really don't think a header will produce 10-12hp, however, I could be wrong. I didn't feel that much of a difference when I used mine. I almost forgot about the header sticky in the intake/header/exhaust section. Check out http://mycomputerninja.com/~jon/hond...der/index.html

You could get almost any type of exhaust put on to your civic, but it would require customizing, like from a local muffler/exhaust shop.

If you car is stock, I doubt tuning will provide additional hp.
