I have a Honda Civic Ex auto. 1.6L. What are some ways of gaining power to the car. Im on a budget so can someone donate a few tips???
Helly ya, the V-Tech stickers always add 50 HP for some reason, and than throw a SkyLine sticker on there too, I heard that added another 25+. Dont do anything else tho, they just add weight on the car, cept maybe the spoiler, i heard it makes the car fly.vtak stickers, spoiler, chrome rims, 4" chrome exhaust tip , stick on hood scoop, color matching window tint with ur interior
how much does it cost to Vtech an engine like the mitsubishi eclipse 4g63 engine(turbocharged)?
lil_will, eat my ass. i saw a vtech engine in a mitsubishi on car domain and was curious as to how to do it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif like you've never made a mistake when you were getting started in performance tuning cars.Tbusiness, I don't think you should be giving anybody car advice!
whats wrong with what you said? where do i begin //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gifget a b18c5 motor swap. turbocharger kit. full cat back greddy exause. injen cold air intake(the long kind that goes from the engine to under the bumper). vtech. 17in. racing rims. take out your back seat. carbon fiber hood and trunk. lower it. custom fabricate it to an AWD.
all for the low low price of 20-40k(USD)
when you are sure you wont make your car explode. get a nitrus injection system.
the engine swap is about $5000turbocharger and all its crap is about $4000
exaust is about $800
cold air intake $160-$210
vteching is about 2-3k depending on who does it.
17in racing rims gonna be about $800
take out your back seat free
custom fabrication from FWD to AWD is alot of money. plus the labor which is more money.lowering is fairly cheapcarbon fiber hood $500carbon fiber trunk $700
nitrus systems arent that bad but some can get pretty pricey
sell your civic and get a 95-99 mitsubishi eclipse GSX AWD or a 240sx 300zx is good too.
fwd ***** at drag racing get a rwd or awd they are better.
those were all possibilities not a list of what he should do but of what he could do. you could vtec (omg is didnt spell it with a "h" this time flip out its a holiday) his engine to add horse power. or get the b18c5 enginewhats wrong with what you said? where do i begin //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
first off, if you engine swap, your most likely gonna be puttin in a b16/18 which already is equipped with vtec , yes thats vtec not vtecH
carbon fiber trunks+hoods+doors are mainly just for looks, the weight lost when going from stock to carbon fiber is not even worth it assuming your already pushing 250-300 hp from the forced induction engine
tranny swap to AWD? why in the world would you do that? how many hobby honda's have you seen with AWD? you can take a honda down to the 12's with FWD as long as you know what your doing , thats just retarded unless you have money to wipe your ass with
the only thing i do agree with you about is gettin yourself a 1st generation DSM AWD ... great platform to start from but not the most reliable as most 10+ year old cars are...
god ****ing dammit you dont VTEC an engine, its not a Process, its not a kit, its Not something you ADD!!those were all possibilities not a list of what he should do but of what he could do. you could vtec (omg is didnt spell it with a "h" this time flip out its a holiday) his engine to add horse power. or get the b18c5 engine
carbon fiber looks pretty and takes some weight off. thats good
like i said above an awd conversion would be expensive. but would make the car faster. so we really arent disagreeing there.
so other than my vtech typo. there really isnt anything wrong with my post. its a habbit and i type fast so i dont really pay much attention. there are tons more typos flung in the post so have a hay day with that.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
